In 2014, suicide was the 10th leading cause of death in the U.S. and rates of suicide in the U.S. general population are increasing. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has worked tirelessly to develop suicide prevention resources for every Veteran who is experiencing a mental health crisis. VA is committed to identifying and reaching all Veterans who may be at risk for suicide and continues to enhance programs designed to reduce risk among those who receive services from the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). This report is unprecedented in its breadth and depth of information about the characteristics of suicide among Veterans. It contains the first comprehensive assessment of differences in rates of suicide among Veterans with and without use of VHA services and comparisons between Veterans and other Americans. Figures and tables. This is a print on demand report.
