Join this peer support session exclusive to veterans to receive support from others with similar lived experience. Try it out once, pop in once in a while, or keep coming back each week.

About the host
I am currently employed as a Case Manager working with veterans. As a US Navy veteran myself, as well as a Paramedic for many years, I have dealt with many mental health and addiction issues as a result of the traumas experienced during those years. Being on the other side of that, my passion is to listen to others who are experiencing those same issues and offer my support. Stop on by for some mindfulness and open sharing! It's amazing how much it helps!

Volunteers of America and its Shay Moral Injury Center is dedicated to education, research and recovery strategies for moral distress and moral injury. Developed using best practices of its evidence-based Resilience Strength Training program for veterans, VOA|ReST meetings are ideal for care workers, first responders, veterans, and anyone in high stakes professions looking for some relief. Through its hundreds of housing, health and human service programs, Volunteers of America touches the lives of 1.5 million people in over 400 communities in 46 states as well as the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico each year. Since 1896, our work touches the mind, body, heart — and ultimately the spirit — of those we serve, integrating our deep compassion with highly effective programs and services.
