Veteran Suicide Awareness and Prevention.
The @AmericanDirtbaggers and @Mission22 came to @UtiEdu today with their 22 push up challenge to raise awareness of the tragic loss of American heroes through suicide. A push up won’t save a life by itself but these events and sharing them on SM will help spread the word and help people find help for someone who may not have gotten it otherwise. If you know someone who is struggling and need help to help them go to mission 22, the VA, or the suicide helpline for resources.

The United States of America, to the republic for which it stands,
one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Mr. Rhodes, so on behalf of UCI and Edna and Mr. Rhodes, I'd like to thank
Mission 22 and American Care Packers for coming together and
raising the awareness to this event.
To all the veterans here on campus, I can't even begin, I'll make it personal
to tell you how thankful I am for all of you and for everything that you've done.
And your mental health is truly one of my utmost concerns, and on behalf of UCI as well.
So, with that being said, I'd like to welcome the American Packers.
Thank you guys for coming and doing this.
Mission 22, 22 suicides a day is what we're looking at right now.
So, obviously we want to bring awareness to that, so I appreciate everybody
coming in here and being a part of this and helping bring that awareness.
So, with that, let's get it moving.
Thank you.
