Objective Zero

Suicide prevention application for veterans

Objective Zero (OZ) was founded to prevent veteran suicide through the power of listening and peer support. The OZ app connects service members, veterans, families, and caregivers to mental health resources and a global support network.

The foundation aims to reach “functional zero,” where military service is no longer a suicide risk factor.
