Mid-Atlantic Regional Community of Practice

Serving the Unique Needs of Minority Veterans and Sub-Populations

This forum is dedicated to training AmericaServes network users on how to better serve our underrepresented veterans, uncover areas of stigma and identify best practices in supporting their needs in the community. Our keynote and panel discussion will highlight the unique experiences of underrepresented veterans: women, LGBTQ+, racial and ethnic minorities, and chronically homeless veterans.
