The Veterans Activists

Making

Veteran Leaders
Community
Organizers

Our programs use
Asset-Based Community
Development to
reconnect veterans with
important people and
places that are under
resourced through
community service.

Redefining

How We Serve
Our Country

We apply our military
skills, especially from
deployments, to
organize community
service projects and
youth empowerment
sessions.

Building Stronger
Bonds Within
Our Communities

Camaraderie is rare
outside the military, but
vital in families and
communities. We aim to
build trust and friendship
through shared
experiences and peer
support.

How do we
accomplish
this...

We build trust through peer
support teams, referral-based
clinicians or social workers,
and holistic therapies to help
repurpose veterans after
military service.
