Aptive teamed up with Artemis ARC, our Mentor-Protégé partner, to ask Veterans and Service members about which modern technologies, particularly artificial intelligence, they would use or recommend to others for mental health and suicide prevention support.
This report details the study’s results and shares important perspectives, concerns and recommendations about exploring the potential for using social technology to expand the availability of mental health support for this population.
The Aptive Veterans Experience Council (VXC) is a group of Veterans, active-duty Service members, National Guard members and Reservists who serve as advisors to help Aptive and Artemis ARC improve services for the Veteran community through philanthropic, corporate and client engagement.
Artemis ARC is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business that fuses traditional marketing techniques with technology and data science to motivate and influence target audiences. Our creative strategists, technologists and futurists challenge the conventional approaches to outreach to simulate change and modernize the customer experience.
