Don Mann on WTKR - Local Sailors Have Questions After 3 Suicides Onboard USS George Washington
“For the Master Chief of the Navy to hear those concerns of the enlisted men and the officers on board a ship or on the aircraft carrier or in general, it’s a really big deal. That shows the Navy is taking it seriously,” said Don Mann, a former Navy SEAL, author and motivational speaker.
SEALKIDS, an organization that is very close to Don's heart, supports the children of Naval Special Warfare—everyday kids living in extraordinary circumstances. This encompassing approach of academic testing, tutoring, therapy, advocacy, and enrichment fosters the success and well-being of the child, critically reducing family stresses and ultimately keeping today’s Navy SEAL in the fight.

Project Lifesaver is a 501 (C)(3) community based, public safety, non-profit organization that provides law enforcement, fire/rescue, and caregivers with a program designed to protect, and when necessary, quickly locate individuals with cognitive disorders who are prone to the life threatening behavior of wandering. The organization was founded in 1999 in Chesapeake, Virginia. The necessity of this program was determined through the correlation between cognitive conditions and the act of wandering. With the dramatic increase of cognitive conditions since the inception of the organization, the program has grown from a localized program to a program recognized internationally as a proven and effective method of “bringing loved ones home.” Don Mann is proud to be an ambassador for Project Lifesaver.
