Army Suicide Prevention

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) develops a pre-entry or entry assessment package that enhances the Soldier Lifecycle (e.g., selection, assignment, training, leader development). This PE enhances the Army?s ability to identify individuals with a higher likelihood of having already experienced, or of potentially experiencing, sub-clinical behavioral issues, as well as to identify character strengths (e.g., resilience, grit), to ensure that the Army can meet mission requirements in the current and future operating environments. Research in this PE will result in more precise determinations of individual potential for future successful service, and more targeted identification of need for individual assistance (e.g., intervention, training, behavioral health) to increase likelihood of future success. Work in this PE is performed by the U.S. Army Resiliency Directorate in Arlington, VA.
