Veteran Reintegration

Our Veterans make up an important portion of our population today, but how much do they silently struggle with societal reintegration post-military service?

Read the below article to see more information on how exactly you can help a disabled Veteran in your area. However, remember that checking up on your Veterans socially can always do much more than medical attention can - as people we run on social interaction. Share the love!

During the current pandemic many of us are struggling to maintain a daily schedule. It's important to reach out and work to maintain social contact with friends and family. Remember that Veterans around you who rely so heavily on these social connections to rebuild need it too!

Read this Stars and Stripes article on how Veteran communities are going virtual - truly is an amazing feat!

Happy Counseling Awareness Month! It's crucial that as a community we encourage our Veterans to speak out about any struggles they may be experiencing and feel supported in taking steps towards what they need.

It is important to maintain both physical and mental health. Ensure that while you are staying home that Veterans that you know of are getting the help they need whether it be medication or other medical assistance. Our Veterans need their communities!

Last week, S. 3503 was passed, a bill to make sure student veterans impacted by the COVID-19-related closures would not see a decrease in their housing stipends. We thank all who made sure student veterans are taken care of during this difficult time. https://t.co/17BlJPJTnn

In light of recent COVID 19 events, the VA has announced that "All VA nursing homes will adopt a “No Visitor” stance, meaning no outside visitors will be permitted to see residents."

This is important as the study states that this method sets a goal for struggling Veterans to attain and work towards; something also vital for Veterans.

The same study titled "The Enriched Life Scale (ELS", sought to define how and what an enriched life is for Veterans. Defining it as "Enrichment = Health + People + Purpose."

[Veteran Reintegration @VeteranReEntry]

This is a result of Veterans being, “caught between who they knew themselves to be in the military and who they are now that they are in the civilian world”.

According to a study entitled "The Enriched Life Scale (ELS)" published in 2018, 44% of studied Veterans post-2001 are found to have suffered from "loneliness" or "out of sync".
