A U.S. military veteran commits suicide every 65 minutes

Dear Colleagues:

As you know RIR and The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) have partnered on many great prevention and awareness projects, this new project is very important to our veterans that are suffering.

A U.S. military veteran commits suicide every 65 minutes, on average, according to a recent study from the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Please share the following information everywhere your organization can, so our veterans know there is help.

Rockers in Recovery & SAMHSA has partnered with the Department of Veterans Affairs so that their National Suicide Prevention Lifeline could act as the single point of entry to help meet the special needs of veterans and service members in crisis. Callers to SAMHSA's Lifeline (1-800-273-TALK) can press "1" to be connected to the VA's Veterans Crisis Line in Canandaigua, NY. Visit Here For Help http://goo.gl/cseHpj

Rock-N-Roll Hall Of Fame Member Using Music To Heal

My name is Lou Esposito...I know, Hi Lou... If you ask the question, what has RIR meant to me ?

It all started back in 2012 when I got invited to play at the 2nd annualRockers In Recovery Music Festival I saw lots of people, lots of very friendly people. I did sets on Friday, andSaturday. and everything went great.

What I found that really impressed me was the honesty, and willingness of the people to talk about their journey down a dark road, and their struggle back again. There were lots of smiling, and laughing people, dancing in the grass, singing, and just having a wonderful time at a clean and sober event.I was floored at what I had witnessed.

The concept of a musical event for people to enjoy, along with speakers to educate the community and addiction professionals onsite for people who might want to get help, was all positive. I came home from that event on a natural high. As RIR musical director we have now years later gone on to produce 20 addiction prevention and awareness concerts/festivals across the united states.
