This symposium will explore veteran suicidality spanning multiple generations and foreign conflicts. Before this session participants are invited to attend a screening of the remarkable movie “Project 22” which poignantly shows the human faces of this tragic mental health issue. (See pages 29 and 65 for more information) The symposium panel includes ‘Doc’ King, one of the creators and directors of this documentary. As a combat veteran he has dealt first-hand with this personal, painful issue. Dr. Harold Kudler—VA Chief Consultant for Mental Health Services—and Dr. Dennis Shelby will discuss the psychological issues raised by the movie, what is being done to address this problem nationally, and what we as analysts can do about it in our practices.
