Veteran Family Summit

Just as Veterans can be affected by their time in service, Veteran Families can often face challenges that impact their mental health as they support and serve alongside their loved ones. As such, it is crucial to acknowledge and prioritize the needs of Family members as individuals.

The Veteran Family Summit was created in collaboration with Veteran Families and those who support them in order to provide Families with access to knowledge, resources and supports specific to their unique needs — right from the comfort of their own home.

This two-day virtual event focuses on the needs and experiences of Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) Veteran Families. In addition to serving Families, it offers a unique opportunity for service providers to learn how to best serve the Veteran Family community.

The Veteran Family Summit is free to attend and features speakers from across Canada.

Each year, Veteran Family Summit attendees will hear from experts in the field who will share valuable knowledge and insights on issues crucial to the Families of CAF and RCMP Veterans. Participants will also learn from the real-life stories and the lived experiences of other Veteran Family members, reminding them that a community of support surrounds them wherever they are. As well, there will be various virtual resource booths available to browse during the event, giving participants the opportunity to collect a swag bag of information and reach out to service providers directly.

We see you. We are you. This is for you.
