The Building Bridges Veterans initiative is a rapidly expanding movement whose mission is to address veteran social isolation, depression, Post-Traumatic Stress and suicide risk that so often accompany military service. Seeking ways to genuinely thank veterans for their service, Building Bridges creates veteran communities around a weekly or monthly meal, to the end of peer support and mutual healing.ย
Among the most misunderstood segments of American society, military veterans have tragically been marginalized from the very homeland they risked their lives to protect. Becoming involved in the movementโby financial contribution, by volunteering at one of the meal sites, or simply by informing a veteran you know about a nearby communityโhas already meant the world to the more than 1,500 veterans who participate.
