Veteran Support Bootcamp

— The Veteran Social Circle (VSC), a pioneering nonprofit organization built by veterans for veterans, is proud to announce the launch of two transformative programs: There Reconnection Initiative and the Veteran Support Boot Camp. These groundbreaking efforts are designed to combat social isolation, strengthen mental wellness, and ease reintegration into civilian life.

At the helm of these initiatives is Dr. Deirdre Evans-Cosby, MD, a distinguished psychiatrist and national thought leader in trauma-informed care. A graduate of Meharry Medical College School of Medicine and residency-trained at Morehouse School of Medicine, Dr. Cosby currently serves as Associate Professor of Clinical Psychiatry and Director of the Psychiatry Residency Program at Morehouse. Her expertise in behavioral health and leadership is shaping the future of veteran reintegration through VSC.

The Reconnection Initiative: Rebuilding Community, One Circle at a Time

The Reconnection Initiative is the first of its kind—developed by veterans for veterans. It addresses the silent struggle many face after service: a loss of identity, structure, and purpose. Through local community gatherings, peer mentorship, wellness events, and mental health support, the initiative is helping veterans build meaningful civilian lives rooted in connection and support.

“We’re not just talking about mental health—we’re building a new way for veterans to thrive in the community again,” says our experts. “This initiative ensures no one transitions alone.”

Veteran Support Boot Camp: June 29–August 17, 2025

In tandem with the Reconnection Initiative, VSC is hosting the Veteran Support Boot Camp from June 29 – August 17, 2025, held daily from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM hosted virtually. This three-day intensive includes:

• Life skills and workforce readiness

• Group mentoring and motivational workshops

• On-site VA benefits support

• Fitness and stress-relief activities

The boot camp is free and open to all veterans and transitioning service members. Registration is available at YourVet.org/registration.
