About this Episode

In our first of four episodes addressing veteran suicide, Idaho American Legion Adjutant Abe Abrahamson joins Jeff and Ashley to talk about One More Day, a peer-to-peer program where trained task force members help mitigate the situation when a veteran is in crisis, gets them assistance, and maintains contact and support for them in the aftermath. Abrahamson, who is also director of One More Day, believes this formula can be adapted elsewhere.
