Many Veterans and their family members seek help for their problems from clergy. Upcoming programs in Colchester, Randolph and Brattleboro can help you to support them.
Rural and smaller-town Veterans in particular have limited choices for healthcare. As a member of the clergy, you and your house of worship are an important contact point for Veterans in your community. Sometimes clergy members aren’t aware of the Veterans in their congregation or how they might help a Veteran and their family following deployment.
Training topics will include:
- Military culture and the wounds of war.
- Potential roles of clergy while assisting with Veteran care.
- VA Suicide Prevention-“SAVE’ Training.
- Building Community Partnerships
