Make the Connection

Veterans, Army National Guard and Reserve members, active-duty military personnel, family, friends, and clinicians all can connect with one another and with valuable health resources at http://maketheconnection.net. A campaign launched by the VA, Make the Connection organizes and filters information based on user identification.

Begin by selecting “Who You Are,” and enter a page full of applicable resources, including a motivational video, family and relationship support, guidance for transitioning from service, and other helpful information.

Other ways of navigating these resources include selecting life events or experiences (eg, Financial and Legal Issues or Retirement & Aging); choosing to watch a video from the Video Gallery; sorting by signs and symptoms (eg, Chronic Pain or Reckless Behavior); and opting to explore by specific health conditions (eg, Effects of Military Sexual Trauma or Problems With Alcohol). Additional resources and support are also readily available on the website.

If visitors don’t know what they are looking for, they can gain access to valuable information by customizing their settings, answering whether they are male or female, during what era they served and in which military branch, and whether or not they were exposed to combat.
