Activities in August

These engagements gave us another opportunity to listen, learn, exchange ideas, and strengthen relationships. Here are a few examples:

• Serving those who support and serve veterans. At the VRCN Convening, we connected with organizations working on issues ranging from military transition and employment to healthcare access, homelessness prevention, and suicide prevention.
• Engaging with leaders responsible for veteran services across the country. At NASDVA, we continued building relationships with state directors, their teams, federal partners, and others working to improve services and support within their states and communities.
• Advocating by bringing community experience and practical solutions into conversations about the challenges facing veterans and their families. At the ESGH 2026 Convening, we brought partners together around shared issues, introducing ideas and evidence to strengthen their work and moving from individual organizational efforts toward a more coordinated community response..
• And so much more. From Columbus to Savannah to Houston, we strengthened existing partnerships, developed new connections, and identified opportunities for continued collaboration that will impact veterans and their families across the country.

Thank you for your continued support and for following the Center’s work across the country.
