Emotional
Most important is the connection – the Veteran is not alone. Service Members who have lived through similar experiences, visually see other Veterans overcome their physical disabilities and self-limiting beliefs.
Through a Veteran Peer Support Network, they can share and become more comfortable with their past, ultimately learning new encouraging and healthy coping skills.
Social connections are an important source of fun, pleasure, sense of security, quality of life and stability, all of which play into maintaining good physical and emotional health.
