Vets4Vets Introduction

Vets4Vets is a non-partisan veterans' peer support organization dedicated to helping Iraq and Afghanistan veterans.  Founded in 2005, V4V hosts workshops where counseling is peer directed, "off the record" and provides vets an opportunity to reunite and/or meet new veterans from the same conflict.  The essential component of these workshops is that they are absolutely FREE.  V4V pays all lodging, travel, food expenses, etc incurred during your weekend experience.  The following is an events calendar:

June 26-30, 2008, San Francisco, CA
July 11-13, 2008, Birmingham, AL
August 1-3, 2008, Jefferson, TX
October 24-26, 2008, Salt Lake City, UT

Vets4Vets Challenge
V4V is seeking support from veterans to site survey locations for their next workshop.  V4V will reimburse the veterans $500 for their time and effort and double that incentive ($1000) for bringing 10 veterans to the event.
