Welcome to the Northern Kentucky Service Members, Veterans, and Families Suicide Prevention Coalition page!
About Us
We are a group of organizations and community members—including veterans—that formed in April 2022 to collaborate and offer diverse perspectives dedicated to one mission. Our group was established in collaboration with NorthKey Community Care, Cincinnati Veterans Affairs, Northern Kentucky Health Department, and other local organizations.
Our Mission is to reduce suicide by connecting Northern Kentucky service members, veterans, and their families through collaboration, education, and advocacy.
Our Vision is to provide hope, education, and awareness, and to create relationships among Northern Kentucky service members, veterans, and their families.
Coalition Meetings
Service members, veterans, family members, area agency representatives, and concerned community members are all welcome to join our meetings. Your support and perspective are invaluable to our mission!
