H. Res. 387, Expressing support for the designation of June 10, 2023, as "Veterans Get Outside Day". This resolution can be a saving grace for those veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress and depression, along with those who have also suffered a traumatic brain injury. The men and women of the Armed Forces have higher rates of suicide compared to their civilian counterparts and this proposed day outside is to call attention to the healing power of mother nature on the mind and body. To join together on this day as a united veteran support system is a step forward to create the awareness necessary to combat the mental health crisis veterans face daily.
Please contact your elected officials and ask for their support.
