Albeit a bit road-weary from travel challenges on the way home, #TeamAG returned from last week’s 2024 VA/DoD Suicide Prevention Conference with renewed focus, energy, and fresh perspectives. It was a busy and productive week sharing insights, connecting with peers, partners, fellow thought leaders, community organizers, and innovators, and creating new synergies to drive innovation across the suicide prevention sector. Thank you to U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Defense Suicide Prevention Office (DSPO) for the opportunity to come together as a community to #RemaginePrevention, #IncreaseTheReach, and advance this important mission to save lives!

This has been a busy week for #TeamAG making an #impact across the #SuicidePrevention sector! While the A-G Associates team of suicide prevention and behavioral health subject matter experts has been sharing insights at the VA / DoD Suicide Prevention conference in Portland, our SAMHSA team has been working hard to support ground-breaking initiatives to address the recent rise in suicides among Black youth in America at the Black Youth Suicide Prevention Policy Academy. This three-day collaborative strategic planning session brings nationally-renowned researchers, clinicians, educators, and subject matter experts together with policy makers from more than 8 states and youth with lived experience to share stories, discuss culturally relevant treatment considerations, and develop strategic action plans that will shape policy at the state and local levels. Thank you to WUSA-TV Channel 9 for including this event in their evening broadcast: The Black Youth Suicide Summit seeks solutions to the tragic issue | wusa9.com We’re proud of the important work that #TeamAG is doing from across our portfolio to meet the full demand of the mission to eliminate the problem of suicide. #TeamAG #FocusonImpact #PublicHealth #PublicSafety #BehavioralHealth #MentalHealth

Team-building, collaborating, strategizing, goal-setting, connecting in person as a team, and so much more… On this #FunFriday, we’re highlighting last month’s annual A-G Summer Retreat. For an incredible three days in July, #TeamAG gathered in our Columbia, MD hometown from across the US and even OCONUS — New York, North Carolina, Nevada, and even Hawaii and Alaska – to connect, strategize, and recharge as a team over productive working sessions, team breakouts, a CPR certification course led by American Red Cross, a memorable Family Night rooting for the O's at Camden Yards and a sunny Family Fun Day & Cookout. The energy and camaraderie were palpable throughout the week, and we can’t thank our team enough for making the retreat so memorable! 🌟 #TeamBuilding #SummerRetreat #AGAssociates #TeamAG #EmbraceChange #FocusonImpact #CompanyCulture #CultureCounts #LoveWhereYouWork #EmployeeAppreciation
