Nine days.
Saturday, October 17, 8 AM to 2 PM at Jimmie Davis State Park on Caney Lake. Veterans fishing day — kayaks, food, and good company.
Call (318) 671-8131 to register. Kayaks are limited and first-come, first-served. Bring a chair.
Even if you don't feel that you need help and support, your presence could be the help a fellow veteran needs.

In uniform, everybody had the same mission. The unit ran like a machine because nobody was in it alone.
Then you come home. Everybody's got their own mission now. Most of the people you see are not watching your back.
For those who served in combat, that goes even deeper. That bond was forged under fire, and very little comes close.
That's the mission of the Safety Net: give veterans the connection, and the chance to build brotherhood again.
You're not in it alone.

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month!

For many people living with a disability, continuing to work isn’t always possible. SSDI may provide financial support when a disability prevents you from working.

This month, let’s recognize the strength of people with disabilities and make sure they know about the resources that may be available to them.
