Please join the National Veterans Council for Legal Redress during our monthly Veterans Empowerment Seminar.

NVCLR serves veterans who have been discharged with Honorable and Other than Honorable discharge status. This discharge status could have numerous explanations including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), un-diagnosed mental and physical health conditions. This can lead to the inability to access benefits such as education assistance, housing assistance, disability, employment assistance all leading to homelessness or dependence.

Come get involved and see how you can help our veterans!

Thursday, February 17 · 7:00 – 8:00pm

National Veterans Council for Legal Redress Announces VETERAN’S DAY CELEBRATION
“Thank You For Your Service”
New Haven, CT

Today The National Veterans Council for Legal Redress announced an immediate release about an opportunity for the community to honor military veterans who have served in the United States Armed Forces.

The National Veterans Council for Legal Redress (NVCLR) is hosting their 1st Veteran’s Day Celebration on Thursday, November 11, 2021, at the Vietnam Memorial Monument, on the Long Wharf, New Haven, CT. They are proud to announce that this year’s event takes place in this historic location, as the NVCLR is the founder and creator of the “V” Memorial Monument. This event not only helps raise funds for Veterans, but it also will raise awareness for their cause. Keith Koutz from WTNH News will be the Master of Ceremonies for the event.

NVCLR invites all military groups to participate, sponsors and vendors to donate, and community leaders to support this event. Sponsorships/donations are pivotal to the success of their endeavors, and every contribution that is made will help advance awareness and inclusion in our workplace and our communities. With your support, veterans will have continued support with employment, assistance in upgrading discharge status, medical and educational benefits, meals, clothing, housing, and transportation.
