CASY, MSCCN, and Team RWB
16
In May, CASY & MSCCN announced an important and exciting partnership with Team RWB, one of the fastest growing Veteran service organizations in the United States. As J.J. Pinter, Team RWB’s Director of Operations, explains, “The most important part of Team RWB’s mission is connection—we connect Veterans to their communities through physical and social activity, and we believe that we can combat some of the common veteran challenges—substance abuse, depression, and suicide—through this commitment to community connection.”
Team RWB connects Veterans to their communities through physical and social activity in order to help Veterans develop enriched lives defined by health, people, and purpose. Lead by a Board of Directors, Advisory Board, and Executive Staff and comprised of local chapters and communities, Team RWB provides Veterans with local, consistent and inclusive community engagement and activity.
“To us, this is about more than employment and more than physical and social activities; this is about helping to connect our veterans to the communities in which they have chosen to reside and giving them the support they need to continue a successful mission outside the military community. This partnership is about attaining and sustaining a successful transition for these fine men and women and their families while educating and strengthening our communities.”
-Stacy Bayton, CASY & MSCCN Sr. Executive VP
Military members, Veterans, and family members often face difficulty when transitioning back into their civilian communities. CASY & MSCCN are proud of the work they do in Veteran and spouse employment, but are also always looking for ways to team up with strong community organizations in order to better serve our Veterans and their families.
