Orientation

Sunday, January 31, 2010 11:01 | Trelane Mc Kinney
These past few days that I have had to let all sink in has been a call from heaven. I had the opportunity to spend more time with Albert before my Organization heard him speak. I like the motto "Refuse to Fail" with the strength of God and other veterans insight I will not lose.

    Hello Trelane and Welcome,
    I am always amazed how Albert Renteria meets so many people all over the country. I can’t wait to hear how you learned about SWVBRC and then your organization became veteran Learners. Thank you for your service to our country and your continued efforts to make a difference.

    I have been to Alaska a few times to hike and take pictures and just loved it. One of the most amazing experiences I have ever had is meeting a bush pilot and his family on a trip to Juneau. They took me for a 4 hour tour of the area in their float plane. I was so impressed with their friendliness and kindness to a stranger.

    Do keep us posted on how you are your group are doing. With the Internet, we can be good neighbors! Take care and God Bless, Chris (Christine)

    Hi Trelane,
    I'm delighted that you see Albert and SWVBRC as "a call from heaven". You are right on, and
    are going to learn so much about yourself and what the society has to offer you as a veteran.
    You have the greatest attitude that is going to take you far. Thank you for your service which
    is greatly appreciated by me and my community, Austin, TX. After reading your blog, I know
    you will experience success. Wishing you the best of everything, and I look forward to following
    your progress in your future blogs.

DOD Welcome home-small.jpg A welcoming home for our Troops.

Welcoming home our men and women doesn't end after the crowd disperses, it MUST continue on for the life of the Veteran! They've served us, now we will serve them with programs that work so they reintegrate into society.

We are a national public benefit nonprofit organization that educates American Communities about best practices to serve Veterans.  We honor their service by empowering Veterans to apply their training and skills to successfully transition to productive careers and enterprises.

The SWVBRC enlists the support of members of local Communities like you to increase Veteran awareness of the value of obtaining a VA card and receiving earned benefits.

Sponsorships, donations, volunteers and support from communities like yours enable us to reach out to Veterans and empower them to transition back into successful, productive enterprises that ultimately benefit all Americans and support future generations.
