The Central Arkansas Veteran Healthcare System is raising awareness of the mental health resources it has available for veterans through the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs in conjunction with Suicide Prevention Month.

"Currently there's a big push for the VA to partner with the community because we know that a lot of our veterans don't come to the VA for help, for whatever reason, when they are separated from service," Laura Watlington, CAVHS suicide prevention program manager, told The Sentinel-Record.
