Suicide prevention at Veterans Affairs Canada : framework / James M. Thompson … [et al.].: V32-391/2018E-PDF

"Like the Canadian Forces (CF) and Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) has long worked to prevent suicides. Suicide is complicated, and suicide prevention is challenging. In September 2009, CF Health Services (CFHS) convened an international expert panel to develop an evidence-based framework for suicide prevention and systematically review the CF’s suicide prevention activities. This report describes the suicide prevention update conducted by the VAC suicide prevention approach working group (VAC working group) in 2010. The working group’s primary focus was suicide prevention in VAC clients, with comments on suicide prevention in the wider Canadian Veteran population"--Provided by publisher.
