Resources for Veterans
In 2022, veterans made up 6% of the country's population and 1% of the population was made up of active-duty service members. Since the creation of the United States of America there have been men and women who have chosen to step up and take on the role as protectors for our freedoms. Most of these individuals are humble and prefer to downplay their contributions to our country. Some also find it difficult to reach out when they are the ones that need help. If you, or anyone you know, are struggling with reacclimating back into civilian life or need assistance of any kind we would like to help you find those resources that can assist with these needs. We have compiled a list of various resources and will continue to add more as they come along. Please know that there are people who want to help, and no one is alone in their struggles. Our proud veterans and service men and women deserve the best and while these men and women may forever remain nameless to us, we shall always be grateful for the sacrifices they and their families have made.
