In this episode of OHH – Feel the Heal, Jay Garstecki sits down with Jerry Shaffer, co-chairman and CEO of The Red Star Foundation. Jerry shares his journey from serving in the United States Marine Corps to leading a mission focused on supporting families of veterans and first responders lost to suicide.
