SUMMARY:Webinar | From Service to Stability: Navigating Financial Well-Being\, Food Security\, and the Civilian Workforce
DESCRIPTION:University of Wisconsin-Madison Institute for Research on Poverty\nREGISTER HERE \nApproximately 200\,000 service members transition from military to civilian life each year in the United States. This shift is a complex journey and success hinges on more than just securing a new job. Recent research highlights interconnected challenges requiring more holistic considerations of financial stressors\, household food security\, and integration into the civilian workforce. Veterans recently separated from active service can face significant hurdles in establishing financial stability and overall well-being\, often exacerbated by the unexpected realities of budgeting and debt management outside the military structure. Studies also reveal a troubling disparity: working-age veterans\, especially those with children\, face elevated odds of food insecurity compared to their nonveteran peers. This webinar aligns these critical research areas to explore systemic factors driving these challenges and offers evidence-based strategies to improve veteran employment and career integration to ensure those who served our nation can achieve the long-term stability and success they deserve. \nSpeakers \n\nDawne Vogt\, Research Psychologist\, Women’s Health Sciences Division\, National Center for PTSD Women’s Health Sciences Division\, VA Boston Healthcare System\nNipa P. Kamdar\, Investigator\, Center for Innovations in Quality\, Effectiveness & Safety\, Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center\, Houston\nDaniel Peat\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Management\, Carl H. Lindner College of Business\, University of Cincinnati\n\nCLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE UW-MADISON INSTITUTE FOR RESEARCH ON POVERTY

SUMMARY:VetsCAN Engagement Forum (Online)
DESCRIPTION:FOCUS TOPIC: Heat and Housing For Heroes\nCLICK HERE FOR AGENDA and ZOOM CONNECTION INFO \nJoin us on January 15 at 3 p.m. for this virtual Community Engagement Forum presented by VetsCAN. \nOur guest will be Noel Ayala\, Veteran Services Advocate for Heat and Housing for Heroes. \nThe Heat And Housing For Heroes Campaign is uniquely designed to avert life-threatening energy-related emergencies by helping struggling Veterans keep their heat and power on; while also providing adequate resource connections with other State\, County\, and Veteran services for optimal\, long-term household stability. Next to health challenges and limited incomes\, the principle cause of homelessness among Veterans is their inability to pay for the escalating costs to keep their heat and power on. \n \nPlease plan to join us on January 15 at 3 p.m. to learn more!\nCLICK for ZOOM CONNECTION INFO and AGENDA.

SUMMARY:VetsCAN Connections for a Cause
DESCRIPTION:Promoting VA-Community Coalition\nJoin VetsCAN for a panel conversation about meeting veterans’ basic needs and how we can better meet the community’s needs.  Following the panel conversation\, we will engage in intentional networking events\, where we can explore how each organization can collaborate to support veterans in our local communities. \nThe majority of Wisconsin Veterans rely on non-VA health care providers. Therefore\, it is crucial that community providers of medical\, mental health\, and social services develop cultural competence to continue to meet the needs of Veterans in the Madison-area.  \nAs the non-profit Community Veterans Engagement Board (CVEB) affiliated with the Madison VA Hospital and Clinics through the national VA Veterans Experience Office (VEO) and like CVEBs across the country\, VetsCAN is committed to building a coalition of community organizations and providers. Please join us on Nov. 20 to learn about VetsCAN\, the needs of Veterans in our community\, and how each of us can be a part of the movement forward. \nCLICK HERE TO RSVP

SUMMARY:Behavioral Health Training (Online)
DESCRIPTION:Hooah Am I?  Exploring how confusion of the term “veteran” impacts identity and leads to unnecessary suffering\, increased shame\, and suicide.\nThe presentation will provide education\, a conceptual framework\, and strategies to develop an integrated sense of military identity; one in which a service member feels like they belong both in the Veteran community and within the population as a whole. Overidentification with other Veterans can lead to isolation from the world as a whole (e.g.\, family\, work\, and spirituality) whereas avoidance of one’s own military identity can limit access to pride in service\, camaraderie with other Veterans\, and access to Veteran resources. Even worse\, a Veteran can feel like they do not belong within either community\, Veteran or civilian\, leading to a sense of marginalization\, feeling left out\, and being lost. This is the greatest risk for distress and suicide. This presentation highlights an often-overlooked aspect for suicide risk\, which is a sense of belonging in community. \nContinuing Education Hours: 2.0 \n  \nCLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION.

SUMMARY:Panel Discussion - Discharge Upgrades (Online)
DESCRIPTION:DAV Distinguished Speakers Series – Correcting the Record: Veterans’ Voices on Discharge Upgrades\nThis event is part of the DAV Distinguished Speaker Series\, a partnership between DAV and the Veterans Legal Clinic at the Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School.  Each of our panelists is a veteran who experienced a wrongful discharge\, suffered the harmful effects of that discharge over many years\, and then finally obtained a measure of justice by pursuing a discharge upgrade.  The voices of these veterans tell an incredibly powerful story and underscore the urgent work to be done.  Harvard Law School’s Dana Montalto will serve as moderator.  Barry Jesinoski\, DAV National Adjutant\, will provide opening remarks. \nCLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE \nREGISTER in advance. \n\nAbout the DAV Distinguished Speaker Series\nNow in its 11th year\, the DAV Distinguished Speakers Series provides an annual forum at Harvard Law School for public servants\, thought leaders\, and others to speak on issues of importance to the nation’s veterans. The Speaker Series recognizes leading figures in the veterans’ community\, raises awareness about the needs of veterans\, sparks discussion about the public policies that most impact veterans\, particularly those with service-connected disabilities\, and serves as a call to action for veterans and non-veterans alike to help ensure the nation honors its commitments to those who have served.  The Speaker Series is co-hosted by the Veterans Legal Clinic at the Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School and the Harvard Law School Armed Forces Association.  For information about past convenings in the Speaker Series\, please visit the DAV Distinguished Speakers Series webpage.
