A Royal Commission into the Veteran suicide Rate in Australia
0 have signed. Let’s get to 75,000!
In 2017 , 80 plus Australian Veterans have lost their lives to suicide. This is a National Tragedy and something needs to be done about it. Earlier this year, the Australian Government gave DVA a bucket of money to help in this area. Doesn't seem to be working. In Australia we have 300 plus Ex-Service Organisations working , but they really need a combined plan and to be working to the same goal. I call on the Australian Government to establish a Royal Commission with wide terms of reference to enquire into the Australian Veteran suicide rate and what can be done in practical terms to address this devastating situation.
