Veteran Buddy Checks - Get Involved Today





Military community members can participate in Veteran Buddy Checks this month.


Veteran Buddy Checks encourage Veterans to connect or reconnect with their brothers and sisters in arms - just to check in. The aim is to enhance peer-to-peer connections, improve mental health, and increase access to VA or non-VA resources.


Veteran Buddy Check Week is October 21-25, 2024, it builds on the success of the American Legion's Buddy Check program.


It's as simple as a phone call or sharing a text. If your buddy needs information on resources, then you can connect him or her to an access point that fits best.


Get involved, go online, watch a peer wellness video, and connect with ten Veterans.
