FY22 Fraud, Waste and Abuse Mandatory Compliance Webinar
It is
incumbent on an SSVF awarded organization to report all instances of potential

keeping in compliance with the executed Memorandum of Award as outlined in
Sections 2, 4, 7, 8, 15 and 20. Please ensure all SSVF staff are required
yearly to review the FY22 Fraud, Waste and Abuse webinar which can be found at Slide 1 (va.gov)

RESOURCE: Suicide
Prevention Month Tool Kit Available Now
September is
Suicide Prevention Month, and we want Veterans to know that they don’t have to
solve life’s challenges alone.
Suicide is a
complex problem, and stressful life events like divorce or job loss can be risk
factors. VA.gov/REACH offers resources to help support Veterans across a wide
range of challenges, before these problems become overwhelming.
Suicide is
preventable, and we all have a role to play. Help us spread the word with the
“Don’t Wait. Reach Out.” campaign toolkit here.
