Transportation, short-term financial assistance, housing, and assistance with VA claims are some of the most pressing needs that Veterans have. AWP empowers local communities by connecting Veterans, caregivers, and families to appropriate resources, services, and partners when they need it most and before a crisis occurs. They also provide care navigation, a personalized support service designed to help Veterans find and access the care and resources they need from within the community and VA resources.
The Laramie County Community Partnership’s Behavioral Health Action Team (BHAT) brings together community partners across Laramie County and Wyoming to strengthen coordination and improve behavioral health and suicide prevention efforts for Veterans, Service Members, and their families. Through Safeguard Veterans, BHAT is building on its existing partnerships to strengthen connections to care, improve referral pathways, and help ensure Veterans and their families can access the right support when and where they need it.
For Veterans not yet connected to VA resources, accessing timely support can feel out of reach. That’s where the new Safeguard Veterans pilot comes in. Developed by the VA Office of Suicide Prevention, Safeguard Veterans is a one-year program dedicated to strengthening the links between care, crisis response and community support so Veterans can access the right help, no matter where they first seek it. Join us for a week-long tabling event on campus. Event is open to the public.
