VFW Post 7824 Veteran Support

You Are Not Alone

Help is available for Veterans, service members, families, and friends facing a crisis, trauma, depression, anxiety, or overwhelming stress.

You were not alone when you served, and you are not alone now. Please reach out before making a permanent decision during a painful moment.

It Is Okay to Ask for Help

After a traumatic experience, it is common to feel frightened, anxious, angry, sad, detached, or constantly on guard. For many people, these feelings improve with time. When they continue, interfere with daily life, or make you feel trapped, professional or peer support can help.

Post-traumatic stress is not a personal failure. Support, counseling, treatment, and connection with other Veterans can help you regain a sense of safety and move forward.

If you are struggling, in pain, worried about another Veteran, or simply need someone to listen, please make contact today.

Connection Matters

Veteran-to-Veteran Support

Sometimes it helps to speak with someone who understands military service and the challenges Veterans may face after returning home.

Talk with a Fellow Veteran

VFW Post 7824 encourages Veterans to connect with trusted peers, Post members, service officers, counselors, and other support resources. Conversations can begin without judgment or pressure.

Support for Families and Friends

Family members and friends can also contact the Veterans Crisis Line when they are concerned about a Veteran or service member. You do not have to manage the situation alone.

Clark County Veterans Assistance Center
