New Creative Directed by Oscar-winning Kathryn Bigelow Tells Veterans, =E2=
=80=9CDon=E2=80=99t Wait. Reach Out=E2=80=9D
As we continue to address the crisis of suicide among veterans, we are prou=
d to launch new creative, in partnership with the Department of Veterans Af=
fairs, to provide education and resources to reduce veteran suicides. The c=
reative features veterans from across the country having candid conversatio=
ns about the stigma associated with asking for help. Veterans, often the fi=
rst to aid others, can find it difficult to ask for help themselves. That=
=E2=80=99s why we=E2=80=99re telling veterans, =E2=80=9CDon=E2=80=99t Wait.=
Reach Out.=E2=80=9D Working together, we can deliver life-saving informati=
on to our nation=E2=80=99s heroes and offer them the resources they deserve=

New Creative Directed by Oscar-winning Kathryn Bigelow Tells Veterans, “Don’t Wait. Reach Out”
As we continue to address the crisis of suicide among veterans, we are proud to launch new creative, in partnership with the Department of Veterans Affairs, to provide education and resources to reduce veteran suicides. The creative features veterans from across the country having candid conversations about the stigma associated with asking for help. Veterans, often the first to aid others, can find it difficult to ask for help themselves. That’s why we’re telling veterans, “Don’t Wait. Reach Out.” Working together, we can deliver life-saving information to our nation’s heroes and offer them the resources they deserve.

To Prevent Wildfires, Smokey Bear Encourages Americans to Channel the “Smokey Within”
In partnership with the National Association of State Foresters and the USDA Forest Service, we recently released new creative for the historic Wildfire Prevention campaign featuring Smokey Bear. Our initiative aims to continue to prevent human-caused wildfires in the United States. The "Smokey Is Within" creative, developed by FCB, shows everyday people embodying Smokey's values, emphasizing the importance of fire safety and offering tools to reduce preventable wildfires.
