Understanding Your Path: VA Claims & Health Support

We help participants identify and connect with VA-accredited representatives, Veteran Service Organizations (VSOs), and legal clinics who are authorized to assist with claims.Transitional Resource Referrals
We provide vetted information on housing programs, job placement services, and community reintegration resources — including family support and employment readiness.Peer-Led Storytelling & Panels
Veterans share their personal experiences navigating the transition to civilian life, offering insight and encouragement to others.
