Join us for a one-of-a-kind event, bringing together resources, care and support for recovering Veterans.

Welcome to VetConnect: Veterans in Recovery Edition! Join us on Saturday, September 7, 2024 at 11:00 AM at Prairie Trails Public Library for a day dedicated to supporting our veterans in their journey to recovery. This in-person event will feature guest speakers, programs, and resources to help veterans connect with the support they need.

Chicago Veterans is building a community of recovery and connection by supporting the well-being of our veterans and their families through our community outreach program. We believe in the power of community to foster healing and resilience.

The overall vision is to build a thriving community where (those in need) Service Members, Veterans, and their families are receiving the care needed to accelerate overall well-being. We are committed to building relationships and being intentional with every person who comes through our door.

Come learn more about the community and meet other Veterans.
