The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a gatekeeper training called VA S.A.V.E. which was developed through a partnership between the VA and the PsychArmor Training Institute. Gatekeeper training teaches "gatekeepers" skills in how to identify a person with suicide risk, inquire about suicidal thoughts, and help make a connection to professional treatment. VA S.A.V.E. is a brief, novel online gatekeeper training that was created and designed specifically for Veterans and their family and friends. In this study, the investigators will recruit Veterans who have recently transitioned out of the military, as well as their family and friends. Participants in the study will be asked to complete a survey, watch the VA S.A.V.E. training, and complete several follow-up surveys over six months. A small subset of participants will also be invited to participate in an interview.
