May is Mental Health Awareness Month! 💚
It’s a reminder that strength doesn’t always look loud. Sometimes it looks like checking in on someone or simply asking yourself, “How am I really doing?” 🤔 At AboutFace-USA, we see the resilience of our military community every day and recognize the unseen battles so many are fighting behind closed doors. 🧠💪 🇺🇸 Take a moment today for yourself or to reach out to a loved one. You never know who might be needing it. 💜

Enjoying a Gala tonight!

💭 April is SAAM (Sexual Assault Awareness Month). It's a time to support survivors, raise awareness, and continue the conversation around healing and prevention. We also recognize veterans impacted by MST (Military Sexual Trauma), as approximately 1 in 3 women veterans and about 1 in 50 men veterans report experiencing MST during their military service. These experiences are often underreported and many survivors struggle in silence..

If you or someone you know is impacted, support is available. Please reach out to us via DM or by visiting AboutFace-USA.org 🤝 We are here to listen and help connect you with resources and support. 🇺🇸

Make a difference and BE THERE... as a friend, an advocate, or bystander. 💜

💜🌿 Grateful to Marie’s Italian Deli, located in the same shopping center as our community center in Cu***ng, GA, for the opportunity to supply our aeroponic farm microgreens for their Ranger Buddy sandwich! 🥪 It’s always great seeing our greens bring something fresh and intentional to their menu. 🇺🇸 Our microgreens aren’t just for local businesses, they’re also an easy way to add nutrition to your own meals at home for a healthier lifestyle. 🥗 If you’re interested in partnering with us or stopping by the center to pick up fresh greens, send us a DM! 🥳

Come out, grab a cup of coffee, and connect with others in the community who just get it. 🇺🇸

🧠 Did you know? 🤔
April is Alcohol Awareness Month. It’s important to remember that more than 1 in 10 veterans experience substance use disorder, a rate higher than the general population.

For our founder, Joe LaBranche, this isn’t just a statistic; it’s something he understands on a personal level. As someone who’s walked that path himself and knows what it takes to face those challenges and come out stronger, his message is simple: you’re not alone and recovery is possible! 💪

If you or someone you know is wanting support, call us at 888-766-0222, send us a private DM, or visit aboutface-usa.org to learn more. 🇺🇸 AFU has your back!
