This summary mentions suicide. If you or someone you know is going through a tough time, please contact the Samaritans Organisation at 116 123 (UK & Ireland).

U.S. company ReflexAI recently launched "HomeTeam," a product aimed at preventing suicide among war veterans. The company uses AI-based tools to help crisis response, public safety and health care organizations reduce costs and improve the quality of their services.

The United States are in the midst of a mental health crisis, an average of 17 veterans commit suicide each day, which is why finding a method to support these people is critically important. 

HomeTeam was therefore created as a digital training tool that provides veterans with the skills and confidence to support their fellow travelers through mental health challenges. The product is divided into four training modules: communication support, talking about suicide, establishing safe conditions, and connecting with crisis response organizations.
