Veteran’s Day is an opportunity for us to support those who have served in the military and their families. For those who make it home, the fight is not over. If you or someone you know is looking for additional support, here are some resources that may be of service:
Connect with PATH for support with employment and housing. https://epath.org/find-your-path-home/
For support with education, health and employment visit LA County’s Department of Public Social Services: https://dpss.lacounty.gov/en/community/veterans.html
If you or a veteran you know is in a crisis, contact the Veterans Crisis Line for confidential toll-free support via phone, online chat, or text. http://www.veteranscrisisline.net/
Although the Veterans Resource Centers are currently closed due to the pandemic, their website lists several resources to attain benefits, employment and more. https://lacountylibrary.org/veterans/
For some, cycling is what helps: https://www.rei.com/blog/cycle/how-cycling-is-helping-veterans-find-peace-at-home
