About the Campaign

Join veterans and community members in a powerful act of remembrance and awareness by participating in a Silent Watch. Throughout this event, participants will take 20-minute shifts standing watch next to a flag-draped casket, honoring those we've lost and raising awareness for veteran suicide prevention. The event will also provide resources from mental health experts and organizations for those seeking support.
