Peer Vision Programs and Offerings

---

Minot Vets for Vets is striving to expand opportunities for area former service members to find connection and support.  As part of this effort, Peer Vision applied for and was awarded Suicide Prevention Community Programming Funding through the North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services.  This funding will allow Vets for Vets to establish a designated veteran gathering space, build its veteran peer support program, add educational opportunities, and enhance its resource and referral capabilities. 

In July of 2024, Minot Vets for Vets was awarded funding from the Donald and Genevieve Roush Fund, through the Minot Area Community Foundation, to assist with the purchase of technology and equipment used for veteran peer support, education, and community outreach at the new Vets for Vets meeting center. This funding has allowed Vets for Vets not only to provide a welcoming, efficient meeting space for individuals who take part, but also to stretch beyond our walls to touch the lives of others who might not have immediate access to our center. Peer Vision and Vets for Vets are grateful for this funding that has already facilitated the set-up of our meeting space, allowed veterans to join peer support groups remotely if needed, enabled in-house peer support specialist training, provided outreach capabilities through website, social media, and electronic communication, and so much more. We are humbled and thankful for this community support, and will, in turn, use these resources to enhance available veteran support our community.
