Community Engagement Toolkit

Community engagement events have the power to drive discussions around influential topics highlighted within documentaries, short stories or topical programs like After Action. Veterans returning to civilian life are learning how to adapt back into their “normal” routines – many after traumatic experiences that have changed their lives forever.

The overall goal for After Action community engagement events is to bring awareness to the adjustments and struggles that veterans and their families experience day-to-day when returning home, after action with the hope to promote and provide helpful tools for families and friends to better communicate with the veterans in their lives.
