I envisioned a place that would be a respite retreat space for Veterans and where they could obtain resiliency tools they may not have been aware of or had access to.
Val has always had a vision for a Veteran transitional wellness center; even before Josh returned home. After Josh ended his life, she knew she needed to pursue this passion and vision even more. She has a passion for advocating for our Veterans and won’t stop until there is an end to Veteran suicide.
