Thank you, it means a lot! It's not easy work, since I work evenings, and have to monitor a lot of systems, and also coordinate Teams calls to fix critical infrastructure like the #VeteransCrisisLine when it breaks. I've had to miss a lot of evenings out with friends & family over the last 12 years.
Virtually everyone on my team has received Excellent or Exceptional performance reviews year after year, and we support a critical mission for the VA, monitoring and supporting the VA's IT infrastructure nationwide, but also providing critical technical support for the #VeteransCrisisLine

Important service announcement. If you're a Veteran, know a fellow Veteran, that's experiencing an emotional crisis, call 988, the Veteran's Crisis Line, or text 838255. People are standing by to help #VCL #VeteransCrisisLine #suicideprevention #veterans #helpingveterans
It is #VeteransDay and there are many veterans who do not have access to the #mentalhealth care and support that they need. Those who are serving/have served the country deserve the resources needed to live a healthy life after that service.
#VeteransDay2024 #veteranscrisisline #suicideawareness
No #Veteran should go through a crisis alone.
Veterans who need support — and those who know one — can ☎️ call 📱 text or 💻 chat online with the #VeteransCrisisLine for free, confidential, 24/7/365 emotional support.
