Veterans United: A Community Reset | Concord News

Veterans got the community support they deserve at New England’s biggest veteran resource event, where 100+ organizations united under one roof to connect service members with essential services — complete with a car show, petting zoo, and free haircuts.

By breaking down silos, nonprofits can share resources and better serve vets — many of whom are organizers themselves, recalling the confusion of transitioning out of service.

When mission-driven folks unite, real change happens — and this event proves it. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
