N2  - According to the World Health Organization, suicide is a leading cause of death globally with over 800,000 annual deaths (World Health Organization, 2019). In the United States, roughly 46,500 adults died by suicide in 2018, including over 6,400 veterans (Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Mental Health and Suicide Prevention, 2020). Since the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) began to publicly share their records of veteran suicide in 2005, the suicide rates among veterans have outpaced those of nonveterans in the United States through 2018, adjusting for age and sex (Curtin, 1995; Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Mental Health and Suicide Prevention, 2020). Notably, suicide comprises a complex public health problem composed of multiple environmental and biological factors that interact at the individual, community, and institutional levels. As such, much work has been done to develop theoretical frameworks that account for these multilevel risk and protective factors and assist in structuring empirical research to inform evidence-based suicide prevention services (Chu et al., 2017) © 2021.
