Five Rings is proud to host its first Mission 22 event on Saturday, November 5, 2016, at the Five Rings' Main Campus.
Mission 22 is an organization dedicated to raising the awareness of the crisis with the Veteran suicide rate, the effects of Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD), and how families and communities can be a part of the solution. Over 20 veterans commit suicide every day.

Mission 22 message, perspective and culture:
- On the topics of Veteran suicide and PTSD it is easy to spin into negative aspects but we believe that for a true culture change this country needs everyone to be uplifting. Negativity is detrimental to what we do and we need your help with steering everyone in a positive direction.
- Mission 22 is not political. We are not Republican, we are not Democrat. We are Americans who believe in humanity and helping one another. We are here to support our veterans and politics need not ever be involved.
- What we are getting ready to do is very important and participation and raising awareness are a huge part of that. The people involved, how they act and how the community views veterans is important to Mission 22. You are as big of a part of Mission 22 as we are and we are really excited to have you on the team!
