The VA's just released the results of a landmark study conducted by the Ann Arbor VA Health Care System, and it perfectly reflects what Neptune Warrior has been advocating for the past eight years. The study, titled Decreased Suicide Risk Among Veterans with PTSD Through Early Therapy Initiation, shows that early intervention can significantly reduce suicide risk for veterans battling PTSD. The study confirms what we've witnessed firsthand at Neptune Warrior, scuba diving changes lives. Through diving, veterans experience the calming effects of controlled breathing, the therapeutic freedom of weightlessness, and the focus that clears mental clutter. It's more than recreational activities. It's a path to healing. Add to this the camaraderie of diving with others who understand the challenges of service and it becomes an invaluable tool of recovery. This is the moment the VA recognizes the strides we've made at Neptune Warrior and collaborate with us to reach more veterans. Together, we can create a partnership that expands access to this life-changing intervention and provide hope to those who need it most.
