Veteran Town Hall

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT:

For many veterans, transitioning out of military service means more than finding a new job. It can mean rebuilding the sense of purpose, community, structure and belonging that came with serving.

In this Mission Roll Call Veteran Town Hall, MRC CEO Jim Whaley sits down with Valerie Brigham, Mission Roll Call Operations Manager and a 22-year U.S. Army veteran, for a candid conversation about her own transition from military to civilian life — including the uncertainty of leaving the Army, navigating careers that weren’t the right fit, and ultimately finding meaningful purpose again through service to the veteran community.

Jim and Valerie also discuss the experiences of military spouses and children, the importance of mentorship and community, and why veterans shouldn’t be afraid to change direction while figuring out what comes next.
