It seems as though fewer and fewer people are joining veterans' organizations these days, even as more pop up. Do you think it's important for people to join them? Why?

Here are some great reasons why some folks think you should join a veterans' organization: http://rly.pt/2rLXXoQ

Besides being another person that adds to their number, it's a source on comaradery.

American Military University‎ Yes I think it is very important!

Provided below are a list of Veteran Organizations that I’m involved in:

Check this out: https://www.rallypoint.com/shared-links/bike22-locations

Member, Board of Directors for National Veterans Transition Service, Inc. (NVTSI). Helping Veterans successfully transition from the battlefront to the home front, NVTSI is a San Diego-based 501(c)(3) dedicated to assisting veterans in their reentry. We accomplish this by providing an early-stage cognitive-behavioral educational intervention, via a 3-week intensive workshop – REBOOT – followed by related mentoring and other services.  Here is link to their website:

Chairman, Board of Directors, Victory for Veterans - As the Chairman of the Board provide strategic leadership and vision toward the mission of Victory for Veterans to fund non-profits serving Veterans experiencing the emotional challenges of PTSD, depression, loneliness, anger and others that often can trigger joblessness and lead to homelessness. These factors are partial explanations for the high suicide rate among Veterans, currently around 22 per day. Check out the website:
