Coming together to help Veterans
On January 30, Pam's Magic Sauce, God Outreach Ministries and Buddy Watch Walk will welcome several Veteran organizations and advocates to the Ft. Hood area for a workshop and 2.2 mile walk.
Fight the War Within and the Armed Forces Mission will present the Intervene Challenge founded by LTC. Lou Koon. This three-hour seminar is designed to teach you what to look for and how to help those who are struggling.
What you learn in this seminar will “turn the tide on suicide" through learning life-saving skills to help guide you through talking to someone struggling with an internal war.
Fight the War Within is sponsoring the in-person lesson. The virtual lesson will be $10.00, and the link to sign up will be available soon.
