Resources for Veterans

In my efforts to be a resource hub for our Veterans and their families, I will update with new or changing resources as I become aware of them.

Each county in Michigan has a Veterans Navigators Office.

Please see link below to find a Veterans Navigator in your area.

Service-connected mental health conditions are prevalent among veterans, and one of the most common is depression. Veterans with severe depression linked to their military service may qualify for a 100% disability rating from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Our mission is to assist veterans with the array of issues they may face, including obtaining proper disability compensation, financial and health assistance, information on the GI bill, and more. We have created some helpful guides and will continuously be adding more. Check it out:
