Forge VFR (Veteran and First Responder) is mission-focused on improving the mental health and well-being of active-duty service members, Veterans, First Responders, and their families.

Forge VFR’s founding team is a band of Veterans, people in recovery, and people who have had friends and family who have been through what you are experiencing.

All of our services are confidential and are all in-network with the Veterans Community Care Network (VACCN), Humana Military (TRICARE), and commercial health insurance plans. The multidisciplinary teams of clinicians and medical professionals, many of whom are Veterans or First Responders, are highly trained, and ready to work with you.

For those of you who work in uniform or have been in uniform, we know the weight of the badge, we know the weight of the gear, and we know the weight of the stories. Your problems are not new, our approaches are!

DAV’s Mission Statement
We are dedicated to a single purpose: empowering veterans to lead high-quality lives with respect and dignity. We accomplish this by ensuring that veterans and their families can access the full range of benefits available to them; fighting for the interests of America’s injured heroes on Capitol Hill; and educating the public about the great sacrifices and needs of veterans transitioning back to civilian life.

This mission is carried forward by:

• Providing free, professional assistance to veterans and their families in obtaining benefits and services earned through military service and provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and other agencies of government.
• Providing outreach concerning its program services to the American people generally, and to disabled veterans and their families specifically.
• Representing the interests of disabled veterans, their families, their widowed spouses and their orphans before Congress, the White House and the Judicial Branch, as well as state and local government.
• Extending DAV’s mission of hope into the communities where these veterans and their families live through a network of state-level Departments and local Chapters.
• Providing a structure through which disabled veterans can express their compassion for their fellow veterans through a variety of volunteer programs.

LRVC is comprised of local veterans and community leaders working to implement the Veteran-focused Together With veterans suicide prevention program in the Lakes Region.

Our Mission
Enlisting rural Veterans and their local partners to join forces to reduce Veteran suicide in our community

Our History
The Lakes Region Veterans Coalition follows the Together With Veterans (TWV) Rural Suicide Prevention Program funded by the VA Office of Rural Health and supported by the Office of Mental Health and Suicide Prevention. TWV’s guiding principles are Veteran-Driven, Collaborative, Evidence-Informed, and Community-Centered.

The Together With Veterans is a five-phase process to support rural communities in developing a local action plan to prevent Veteran suicide. The five Phases guide the community through identifying Veterans and other key partners; learning about suicide prevention and specific community strengths and needs; and developing and carrying out an effective local Veteran suicide prevention action plan.
