The Military Veteran Peer Network provides FREE and CONFIDENTIAL services to veterans, soldiers, and their family members. We offer peer to peer support groups, peer mentorship, social groups, team services projects, and workshops led by other veterans and military family members. Each volunteer is a certified peer specialist who can provide support through some of the difficulties many faces while in the service and once they have begun life as a civilian. These groups are designed to not only provide support to those who may be in need but also to provide a sense of community among those who have served. We are continually looking to expand our network and create opportunities and activities that all veterans and family members can benefit from.
The Military Veteran Peer Network (MVPN) is a group of veterans and family members who have volunteered to provide fellow vets and families with support through groups, peer mentorship, and community resources. The Military Veterans Peer Network is a state-funded program that has been active for a few years. The program was designed to create a sense of community for those who may be struggling to readjust to civilian life after serving or experiencing trauma. It was also designed to create a place for those who are interested in socializing with individuals who have been in a similar situation.
