Held during National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, this year’s Vet Fest is on Saturday, Sept. 30, and will once again bring mental health support and resources to local veteran communities.
Organizations like Stop Solder Suicide and the Department of Veterans Affairs aim to raise awareness about the challenges veterans face while providing education, resources, treatment and hope for all members of the armed forces to get the help they need, when they need it.
Here in Delaware, Vet Fest is an annual event that has operated with this mission in mind for eight years.
