Where do our Veterans begin in finding the help they need? What should our discharged Veterans keep in mind when they are traveling home or if they have already been home for years?

In today's Episode, we will discuss some of the logistical and organizational questions that many Veterans ask. The goal is to gain a better understanding of the processes, systems and resources needed to apply for regional VA and Regional Support Services.

The Mission of our podcast is to quiet the stigma of PTSD & Mental Illness while providing compassion & empathy for the life of a Veteran.

We accomplish this by gaining an understanding of the path these Veterans, the family of Veterans and the surrounding community members walk through storytelling, education and relationship building.

To take the under reported number of 22 Veteran suicides a day suicide seriously. Even just saving one Veteran, making it 21 is a victory.

In the podcast you will see through the eyes of a Veteran, hear Veterans speak a language only others Veterans will understand, even if they struggle to voice it themselves. For some there is a storm brewing, yet others have walked a mile already, come walk in their shoes. Hear their success stories, hear their struggles and it may inspire other Veterans to join in.

Our hosts, David Nicastro (Marine Vet), Adam Curcuru (Marine Vet) and Andrew Nicastro (Family Member of Vet) allow themselves to be open, vulnerable and thoughtful as they tell their stories in the hopes that other Veterans follow suit.
