A portion of proceeds from all conference and event registrations on August 16 will support SSS’ mission to prevent active-duty military and veteran suicides.

MALVERN, PENNSYLVANIA, UNITED STATES, August 13, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- HMP Global today announced the 2024 Day of Giving to benefit Stop Soldier Suicide, the only national nonprofit whose sole mission is to prevent suicide among veterans and active-duty military personnel.

Through the Day of Giving, a portion of all registrations to HMP Global conferences and events on Friday, August 16 will be donated to Stop Soldier Suicide. HMP Global, the leading healthcare events, education, and market intelligence company, organizes more than 450 annual events across a range of therapeutic areas — including some of the world’s leading meetings for healthcare providers.

“Veterans are at a 72% higher risk of suicide than those who have not served,” said Jeff Hennessy, Chairman and CEO, HMP Global. “This partnership with Stop Soldier Suicide demonstrates our commitment to addressing this critical issue and supporting the brave service members who sacrifice so much for us. Like the promise of Stop Soldier Suicide, we won’t stop until we get this right.”

Stop Soldier Suicide fulfills its mission through research and programs that provide suicide interventions, including:

- ROGER, a wellness service that provides counseling and crisis intervention at no cost to U.S. veterans and service members;
- Black Box Project, a forensic data analysis project that identifies and analyzes data from digital devices of veterans who died by suicide in order to develop machine learning models to identify risk patterns;
- Firearm safety, helping veterans keep themselves and their families safe; and
- Clinical partnerships with healthcare and Veterans Service Organizations to ensure veterans can obtain suicide-specific care.

“We are grateful to HMP Global for partnering with us for the 2024 Day of Giving,” said Jenny Siler, Senior Director of National Corporate Partnerships, Stop Soldier Suicide. “We are doggedly determined to end military suicide, and collaborations like this go a long way to support the innovative programs and services that are making a difference and saving lives.”
