Governor Beshear Remarks during Veterans Day Ceremony - honoring 16 Black Veterans of Civil War
Check on a veteran, we are our brothers and sisters keeper. Wellness checks are encouraged as we stay connected with all veterans. Our veterans are in need of your assistance in their mental health and well-being, reach out to one or a few and take a moment to listen to them (you may never know how important this is in reference to every veteran).
On behalf of Region VI Command Council of the National Association for Black Veterans, Inc. (NABVETS), l I would like to thank and welcome you to our Website. For over fifty-six years NABVETS (est. 1969), a National non-profit membership organization, has provided services to veterans in addressing the holistic, intellectual, leadership, economical, and moral issues of veterans, their families, and communities. The Association has members across the United States, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands and the Dominion Republic – members - valued for their support of broad veterans’ initiatives, projects, and services. Although NABVETS is an organization developed by and for Black Veterans, ALL Veterans are welcome to join, and ALL veterans are provided services.
NABVETS priorities are to address issues of veteran’s homelessness, youth empowerment, and community development. Veterans possess the experience, knowledge, discipline, training, and capacity to unite among themselves and with citizen soldiers to make a difference in the quality of life for youth, families, and their community. It is NABVETS philosophy that Veterans have protected America on foreign soil and must now continue that commitment at home.
NABVETS members, as productive and responsible adults, can influence and affect change to strengthen their families, communities, and the larger society. Toward this end, veterans are encouraged to join a NABVETS Chapter for membership (non-military may join our Auxiliary in support) in their community (and at large). I recommend that you do the same and assist with the implementation and operation of service programs, which are directed to veterans, and their families. We are seeking to increase our membership with your presence. Reach out to us, if you wish to join the mission! We desire your assistance in the assistance of caring for veterans after service in the community and in our country. We welcome and encourage contact with our active duty-veterans.
We are Forever positive in the face of negativity, meaning we have and will convey a spirit of "Let's Get It Done", at all times.
