Ahead of National Veterans and Military Families Month, our In Focus conversation turns to supporting those who served in the military. JoDee Kenney spoke with Dan Clare, chief communications and outreach officer for Disabled American Veterans, about the organization’s mission to support veterans of all walks of life. DAV provides everything from transportation to appointments to advocacy on the national level, and Clare said the group is adjusting to meet veterans’ changing needs. Clare, who is a Marine and Air Force veteran himself, said the employment and educational support DAV offers can be a critical lifeline to service members transitioning back to civilian life.
