At Valley Veterans ReCreation, we are committed to ensuring that veterans receive the support and guidance they need without unnecessary financial burdens. We do not advocate for the use of claim sharks or attorney offices for filing compensation claims. Veterans should never fell pressured to pay for services that can be obtained for free through an accredited Veteran Service Officer (VSOs), who are trained to provide the same level of assistance at no cost.
For this reason, we do not allow any claims-focused businesses or attorney offices to post resources on our page. We believe in connecting veterans with trusted, reputable organizations that prioritize their well-being over profit. If you have any questions or need assistance, we encourage you to reach out to an accredited VSO or a local veteran service organization (American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans, etc.) for help.
If you have a resource that you believe aligns with our mission and belongs on our page, we encourage you to reach out to us. Our goal is to provide veterans and their families with access to trusted and beneficial resources that truly make a difference. Before any resource is added, we take the time to carefully vet each submission to ensure it upholds our values and commitment to serving the veteran community. Please contact us to discuss how your resource can contribute to the well-being of those we serve.
Veteran Service Officers
Veteran Service Officers (VSOs) are dedicated professionals who assist veterans, their families, and survivors in navigating the benefits and services they have earned through military service. VSOs are committed to providing personalized support, including helping with claims, accessing healthcare, and connecting with community resources. With a deep understanding of the challenges faced by veterans, the VSOs are here to advocate for you, ensuring you receive the benefits and care you deserve.

WarriorNOW - https://warriornow.org/
WarriorNOW was founded as a way to eliminate the stigma associated with Veterans dealing with mental health related concerns, PTSD, and/or addiction. It is unfortunate how many of our Veterans are suffering and have no outlet or resources to assist in fighting their daily battle. We are happy to say that we do not fight alone. Much like being in the service, we are bringing the team approach back to the lives of our Veterans where it belongs.​
