Dr. Amanda Purnell, director of data and analytics innovation at the VHA Innovation Ecosystem, discusses the Mission Daybreak Grand Challenge.
With 6,146 veterans taking their own life in 2020, suicide was the 13th leading cause of death among the population overall and the second leading cause of death among veterans under the age of 45, according to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs 2022 Annual Report.
