COVID-19 Update: coronavirus.gov VA statement in regards to COVID-19:

No warrior should ever walk alone. If you are a veteran of any branch, I consider you a brother or sister for life. New Jersey Warrior Society’s purpose is to unite veterans with each other along with their families in gaining stability in our communities across the state and partnering with others to help match veterans with their skills to local job markets. You matter. Your life matters and has value both now and in the future.

As an organization, I want to dedicate this site to assisting our veterans and their families to live a better life. We want to connect and network with other veteran groups in New Jersey specifically to help one another in finding solutions for situations that come up for returning vets and those who have been out of the service that may be having difficulties in finding proper VA care and other benefits rightly deserved from federal and local state governments.

Life is different when you come home, so many times you feel like an outsider or that no one understands your situation but believe me, there are many of us that do.

Through raising awareness of our veterans' needs and their families by participating in public outreach and speaking engagements and meeting with local and state political leaders, we can together enhance the quality of a veteran’s life. It takes a team and nobody does teamwork better than the branches of our armed forces. Come join us!

Current Events and Info:

Countless veterans are currently suffering from life-threatening illnesses that are a result of exposure to asbestos, a material that was commonly used in hundreds of military applications, products, and ships because of its resistance to fire. Veterans who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma even qualify for special benefits from the U.S Department of Veteran Affairs. Below is contact information regarding this matter.
