Buddy Check Day
2022-03-11 | TX, United States
Veterans connect on Buddy Check Day
AUSTIN, TX – The 11th day of each month is Buddy Check Day to remind Texas veterans to check in with other veterans. By getting in touch with others, veterans may enjoy comradery, check on each other’s well-being and connect another veteran with a service they can use.
Buddy Check can be as simple as picking up the phone, just talk, text, or visit. Share this video as a reminder https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ft0pWRO3I98 .
“Of course, it’s a good idea to check on each other more often; but sometimes we forget. So set your alarm and program a reminder for the 11th day of every month as Buddy Check Day,” said Laura Koerner, Texas Veterans Commission Chairwoman and U.S. Navy Veteran.
Veterans wanting to expand their circle or curious about services may be interested in the following:

Veterans looking for a peer to talk with can find them through the Military Veteran Peer Network (MVPN). Talking with a Peers is beneficial, plus they know the resources & services in their area. Find the MVPN near your area at https://www.milvetpeer.net/page/custompage_map . Interested in volunteering as a Peer, visit www.milvetpeer.net
