Col. Teague, Commander of the 5th SFAB, speaks about suicide prevention

“Be there for someone, ask someone for help if you are struggling. I have struggled over the years with the experiences I had in combat. It wasn’t until just recently that I finally reached out and got help for myself, and I’m telling you it is life-changing. If you are struggling with anything that life tends to throw at us, there are resources out there to help you.“
COL Teague and Vanguard senior leaders are committed to ensuring all Advisors and their families have access to the resources they need to strengthen their resilience and improve their personal readiness.
If you or anyone you know is struggling or might be considering suicide, please connect to the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline number (call or text 988).
Militaryonesource.mil can also provide non-medical support before it gets to the point of crisis and the help will be discreet.
“We are family. We are there for one another. Be that Vanguard family I know you are, reach out to someone because you could save someone’s life”
