The Veteran is the heart and soul of our organization. They deserve supportive communities of people who know them, hear them, and see them in ways that hold true to their integrity and identity. The experiences of Veterans are often vastly different than that of their civilian neighbors, so their voice needs to be adequately incorporated in health and wellness discussions, and ultimately, service development and delivery.

In order for Veterans and their families to be their best selves, they need a receptive and culturally competent community in which they can call home. Communities that are accepting and knowledgeable will give Veteran families the power to lead their own happy and healthy lives.
