Education & Outreach
Stigma is often a barrier to people feeling comfortable with seeking help. HicksStrong is committed to removing these barriers and breaking the stigma.
​
We do so by offering workshops on suicide prevention and providing education on various mental health issues such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, & suicidal ideation. By opening the dialogue and making it safe to discuss these topics, we believe we can empower military members and the community at large to seek the support that they need.
​
We also believe that we can empower leaders to identify those within their community who may be struggling and find meaningful ways to assist. We will speak at events, conferences, workshops, and meetings to share our story and our commitment to saving military lives.
