Participant Flow
We recruited 12 posts at the outset of the study, with the help of the Legion's state leadership. We invited all post members to complete surveys at times 0, 5 months and 10 months. The surveys were distributed by post leadership at a post meeting. We did not obtain informed consent; we obtained no personal identifiers but we obtained post.

Education in First Round
Four of twelve posts were in this group and were randomized to receive a series of training sessions. The training sessions were in person and on line, to educate post superusers who will in turn educate post members on the utility and mechanics of use of MHV. The participants at these 4 posts received the intervention in study months 1-5. They completed survey round 1 before receiving the intervention and survey rounds 2 and 3 after receiving the intervention. The number of participants at any post who showed up to respond to any of the three survey rounds varied.
