Supporting Disabled Veterans and their Caregivers

Event Description: 

Join ADvancing States and the National I&R Support Center for the webinar Supporting Disabled Veterans and their Caregivers. This webinar is scheduled for Tuesday, May 14, from 3:00pm to 4:00pm Eastern time.

Our nation’s veterans put their lives on the line to protect the freedoms that Americans often take for granted on a daily basis. After returning from service, many veterans need care outside of a medical setting, often with support from informal caregivers. While all caregivers can face challenges in providing care that they weren’t prepared for, the 7.8 million caregivers of America’s veterans may be caring for those with complex issues such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs), physical disabilities, and other mental health issues commonly experienced by veterans, such as anxiety and depression.  

However, complex issues often result in innovative solutions! Join this webinar to hear about the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) caregiver support program and the free services offered by this trusted organization. Learn how to navigate and connect with DAV’s inventory of no-cost resources and services for veterans and their caregivers. Additionally, a program representative will share specific examples of how DAV and the DAV Auxiliary team have helped veterans and their caregivers as they navigate the often-difficult adjustment to civilian life.
