    Episode #185: Brian Reisinger (Hope That Nobody Can Take From Us: Rural America's Silent Mental Health Crisis))

    September is National Suicide Prevention Month.  In honor of that, we have Brian Reisinger on our Ag Law in the Field Podcast to talk about his family's story related to farm and ranch mental health.  Brian is the author of a new book - "Land Rich, Cash Poor," which offers an interesting overview of the history and cause of the decrease in the number of farms cross the United States.  Additionally, Brian wrote a powerful opinion piece in USDA Today discussing the mental health crisis facing America's agricultural producers. Above all, Brian's story is one of family, resilience, and hope.  If you or someone you know is struggling, please remember, you are not alone.  There is help available.  There is hope, even in the darkness.  Contact Info for Brian Reisinger (Twitter): BrianJReisinger   Links to Topics Mentioned on the Show USA Today Opinion Piece: https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/voices/2024/09/02/america-farms-mental-health-agriculture/74981037007/ Land Rich, Cash Poor book: https://a.co/d/8GkUME5 Farmers Angel Network  https://www.farmerangelnetwork.com/ National Ag Law Center List of Mental Health Resources https://nationalaglawcenter.org/center-publications/family/mentalhealth/ National Suicide Lifeline:  988 Agristress Helpline:  https://www.agrisafe.org/agristress-helpline/   Podcast Sponsors Capital Farm Credit,  AgTrust Farm Credit, Texas Corn Producers, Braun & Gresham, Plains Land Bank, Plateau Land & Wildlife Management, and AgTexas
