Caring for Veterans, by Veterans – A conversation with Vet 2 Vet Maine

As June is recognized as PTSD awareness month, it is important to bring awareness to the Maine men and women who fought for their home and country. For this week's episode of NAMI Maine Talks, we were able to speak with the Executive Director of Vet 2 Vet Maine, Maggie Catanese.  Vet 2 Vet Maine is a non-profit organization that serves the veteran population of Maine. Matching veterans with other local volunteer veterans, Vet 2 Vet provides support, companionship, and links to services across the state.  Learn about the work that Vet 2 Vet has done to help fight social isolation and loneliness among our veterans. You’ll hear about the process to become a veteran volunteer, stories of success, and even how their organization is able to stretch from Presque Isle to Kittery. All this and more on NAMI Maine Talks!  Host:  Tori Tracy, Sr. Manager of CIT Partnerships and Education   Guests:  Maggie Catanese, Executive Director of Vet 2 Vet Maine   Links: Check out the work of Vet 2 Vet Maine: https://www.vet2vetmaine.org/   Looking to get involved as a veteran: https://www.vet2vetmaine.org/join-vet2vet-maineCheck out NAMI Maine's guide to caring for your veteran: https://namimaine.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Guide-to-Support-Your-Veteran.pdf
