American Foundation for Suicide Prevention- rally and conference

I recently covered the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention's annual conference and rally at the US Capitol.

These are very kind, caring, and effective people.

They met and or were spoken to by a number of officials and experts, including Senators Senators Todd Young R-IN, Shelley Moore-Capito R-WV, Sheldon Whitehouse D-RI, Chris Coons D-DE, Catherine Cortez Matto D-NV, Jack Reed D-RI , Congressman Paul Tonko D-NY, former Congressman Patrick Kennedy, Veterans Affairs Secretary Robert Wilkie, Sam Brinton of the Trevor Project, and media executive Tony Cornelius.

Thanks to John Madigan, Chelsey Dumond, and the rest of the professional staff at AFSP for the honor of being of service in this effort.
