President's Welcome
Welcome Veterans & Visitors
Hello Female Warriors and Supporters,
This has certainly been a challenging year for all of us. It has been a loss of physical connection with friends, going out for a movie, taking a vacation, and for some losing their jobs and/or loved ones. To the latter, this has been the most detrimental affect of the COVID-19 pandemic.
During this and all times, know Women Veterans of New Mexico is here for our Veteran sisters. We are here to meet your physical and psychological needs through referrals, telephone or in-person conversations, material and emergency monetary support. We encourage members to reach out in this unprecedented and isolating time as needed and not suffer in silence. Veteran Crisis Line (800)273-8255 Press 1
Many have used this opportunity to spend more quality time with family and friends; complete back-burner projects; fixe up your houses or learn something new. Me, I have been learning Spanish (by an app on my phone), which has been a long time desire of mine. I challenge you to do something you normally wouldn't have time to do, or just been putting off. I also encourage you to be of service to someone else or your community during this time.
It may still take awhile for things to settle into a new normal, but our mission remains the same and we do it while protecting ourselves and others. We will continue to honor grandmothers, mothers, sisters, aunts and nieces who volunteered to protect her country regardless of the sacrifices.
We will also continue to make female service members aware of the services and benefits they earned for writing a blank check to the U.S. government upon their enlistment.
Hoorah!
