Summary
The bill directs the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to update the Department's Lethal Means Safety and Suicide Prevention training course within 180 days of enactment, in consultation with specified federal agencies, experts, professional associations, licensed firearms dealers, and veterans service organizations, to make it culturally appropriate and based on best practices. It requires covered VA employees, employees of community care providers furnishing care under 38 U.S.C. 1703, and family caregivers receiving support under 38 U.S.C. 1720G to complete the most recent version of the course within 90 days of hire or first engagement and annually thereafter. The bill also requires annual updates, an annual public report on completion rates, and public availability of the course on a Department website.
