Caroline Sutter, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC, is a Professor in the School of Nursing, College of Public Health at George Mason University and Co-Director of the Center for Health Workforce.

Through a partnership with the Virginia’s Identify, Screen, and Refer (VISR) program they will provide implementation support for VISR’s community agency training, helping organizations strengthen suicide prevention efforts through evidence-based training, suicide risk screening, referral processes, and connections to behavioral health and support services for veterans. The researchers received $34,785 for this effort, with funding beginning in June 2026 and continuing through late June 2027.
