Connecting Veterans and Seniors with Community Support

NDVS joined the Hope, Hearts & Heroes Foundation at the Senior Health and Wellness Event to connect veterans and seniors with resources that support their well-being.

By Zaconia Turner, NDVS Health Program Manager

Building stronger connections between veterans, seniors, and the organizations that serve them was the focus of the Senior Health and Wellness Event, held October 8th at the Durango Hills YMCA.

NDVS joined the Hope, Hearts & Heroes Foundation and other community partners to share information about programs, services and resources that support the health, well-being, and independence of veterans, military members and their families.

The Hope, Hearts & Heroes Foundation focuses on helping seniors and veterans access essential resources while fostering companionship and community connections. Its mission reflects a simple but important goal of ensuring that no veteran or senior feels forgotten, unsupported, or alone.

Events like this strengthen community partnerships, connect individuals with valuable resources and reinforce NDVS’s commitment to serving Every Veteran, Every Community.
