Fairfax County Veterans Collaborative

June 5, 2018 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

For this meeting, I’ll be setting aside a little bit of time to introduce you to Melissa Fox with Fairfax County Neighborhood and Community Services, who works very closely with the Human Service Resource Guide (HSRG) which is an excellent wealth of resources available in the community. We look forward to sharing more with you about her role and how she can provide input to the Fairfax County Veterans Collaborative.

We’ll also have a couple of organizations presenting to share about their mission and discussing ways we can help them.

Brother 4 Brother

Steve Miller with Brother 4 Brother will be in attendance and speaking about his non-profit organization working to saves lives of returning veterans by partnering them with a brother in arms who will help them transition back in society. He is looking for volunteers to be brothers / mentors for guys returning in the area. He also has a couple of expansion projects in Alexandria and wants to hire veterans for the project and pay them for their work. He’ll share more about his mission and the work he’s doing in the area and be available to answer questions.

Rebuilding Together Alexandria 

Breanne Driscoll, Outreach Manager for Rebuilding Together Alexandria will be in attendance and speaking about the work they do in the city of Alexandria. Their vision for Alexandria is a vibrant community where people of all income groups and cultures live in safe and healthy homes. They are working towards this goal by:

  • Repairing and rehabilitating homes free of cost for those in need, including the elderly, persons with disabilities, military veterans, and families with children
  • Revitalizing communities by improving common spaces and schools serving low-income neighborhoods

• Creating affordable housing in the City

We look forward to hearing more about her organization!
