Veterans Outreach

Your Not Alone!

You were not alone then, you are not alone now. There are 20 million vets who would give their lives for  you. PLEASE, don't take yours.


After a traumatic experience, it's normal to feel frightened, sad, anxious, and disconnected. But if the upset doesn't fade and you feel stuck with a constant sense of danger and painful memories, you may be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It can seem like  you'll never get over what happened or feel normal again. 


This is why we have created the "buddy-buddy" program.  Veterans like you, that have shared a similar experience or trauma in one of our nations many conflicts, are available to talk with you openly and privately and help you deal with issues associated with your experience.  If you are struggling, if you are in pain, if you just need to talk, please call.

Pleural Mesothelioma Center

Mesothelioma.net logo

Mesothelioma.net contains plethora of free resources and information for those suffering from mesothelioma, including associated cancers where it can commonly metastasize or be affected by asbestos. Some of the topics we cover are treatment options, workplace safety, lifestyle, smoking & addiction, research, specialized doctors, and support for families of asbestos victims. I’d also like to note that our site is Health On the Net certified as a trustworthy source of medical information (see bottom right of our site for HONcode badge) and is periodically reviewed by medical professionals.

Homelessness Among Veterans

No Veteran Should Be Without A Place To Call Home

No Veteran Should Be Without A Place To Call Home

 Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness are strongly encouraged to contact the National Call Center for Homeless Veterans at (877) 4AID-VET (877-424-3838) for assistance. 


VA is committed to ending homelessness among Veterans. Our focus is threefold:

  • Conducting coordinated outreach to proactively seek out Veterans in need of assistance.
  • Connecting homeless and at-risk Veterans with housing solutions, health care, community employment services and other required supports.
  • Collaborating with federal, state and local agencies; employers; housing providers, faith-based and community nonprofits; and others to expand employment and affordable housing options for Veterans exiting homelessness.

Supportive Services For Veteran Families (SSVF)

No Veteran Should Be Without A Place To Call Home

No Veteran Should Be Without A Place To Call Home

SSVF Logo

For very low-income Veterans, SSVF provides case management and supportive services to prevent the imminent loss of a Veteran’s home or identify a new, more suitable housing situation for the individual and his or her family; or to rapidly re-house Veterans and their families who are homeless and might remain homeless without this assistance.


How It Works

Through referrals and direct outreach, nonprofit agencies and community cooperatives use SSVF funding to quickly house Veterans and their families who are homeless and keep others from slipping into homelessness by providing time-limited supportive services that promote housing stability. Case management includes help securing VA and other benefits such as educational aid and financial planning.
