Join our Volunteer, Air Force Veteran, Peer Support Specialist/AdultTrainer, and Writer/Author Steven Bates TONIGHT for "Mid-Week Musings!" edition of Warriors for Life (WFL) Online, sponsored and presented by Victory for Veterans, Inc. (VFV).

We are asking everyone to share who we are and the support that Victory for Veterans, Inc. (VFV) is providing through Warriors for Life (WFL). If you know someone who is a veteran, first responder or a family member/caregiver, please ask them to join us for at least one meeting so they can learn more about what we do and how they can share their wisdom with others who may be able to learn from them.

"SCUD Day?"

"To many veterans, SCUD stands for death from above, as it refers to the missiles with the same name, but since 2007, corporate coach Stephanie West Allen gave a new meaning to the term SCUD. In a personal email newsletter, Stephanie created SCUD day, an acronym for Savor the Comic, Unplug the Drama. This is now recognized as a day to step away from stress, conflicts, and trauma and embrace humor and entertainment for much-needed relief. What activities are encouraged for SCUD DAY?"

Join Air Force veteran, author, and Peer Support Specialist Steven Bates with the Warriors for LIfe Mid-Week Musings Peer Support Group as we talk about ways to unwind and unplug from the drama on SCUD day and hopefully give new meaning to a word that usually strikes fear in the hearts and minds of veterans everywhere.

Our Vision at Victory for Veterans, Inc. (VFV) is simple: "Where Hope, Support, and Healing come together!"

We encourage you to join us, Everyone is Welcome, Everyone Matters, You Matter to Us, so Talk to Us! — invite a friend!
