This is a sensitive and potentially triggering topic, but so critical that conversations like these happen, and the visibility of programs and solutions for veterans, service members, and their families are prominent.

Episode of The Edge Network is special to me because I am passionate about companies’ involvement in corporate social responsibility, and giving back – I think more companies need to be more involved in organizations that reflect their own values.

Beyond that, our CEO, Matt Rice, is a U.S. Coast Guard veteran, and I have family and friends who have served.

Today, I’m honored to welcome Hayley Emerson from the Stop Soldier Suicide Organization. www.stopsoldiersuicide.org

Founded in 2010 by 3 Army Veterans, Stop Soldier Suicide is the only national nonprofit focused solely on solving the issue of suicide among U.S. veterans and service members.

Hayley talks about why talking about suicide matters, what programs and solutions the Stop Soldier Suicide offers, and how companies can make an impact through their organization and in their own businesses.

In the inaugural episode of The Edge Network, host Marc Berger chats with Randy Vaughn, Partner and GM of BRAH Electric in Carlsbad, CA.

Randy talks about his youth as a snowboarder, and then how he was introduced into business with his brother, and how that grew, and continues to grow today.

BRAH Electric Manufacturing was established in 2012 with solutions in Universal Bus Plug conversion kits to begin a journey of unfolding solutions to Industrial Applications. With an influx of power distribution equipment becoming obsolete, BRAH took the opportunity to begin manufacturing and distributing direct replacement bus plugs, circuit breakers, motor controls, & related parts as a cost efficient solution for wholesalers and end users alike.

The heart of BRAH is obviously people, but their customers gain an edge every time they work with them! They supply over 5,000+ product offerings and distribute to 26 countries.

Make sure you stay until the end to hear about what's important to Randy in terms of giving back, and, the controversial question at the end!
