Military Veteran Peer Network (El Paso, Texas)

Military Veteran Peer Network (El Paso, Texas) EHN is establishing a group of specially trained peer counselors to work with service members, spouses and children of all ages

The MVPN provides support for servicemembers, Veterans and their families through one on one peer support, peer support groups, trainings (suicide prevention/awareness, mental health first aid, military cultural competency), community resources.... Military Liaison Program
In February of 2009, the Center created its Military Liaison Program to assist in coordinating services for military service members and their families and in establishing behavioral health service linkages with veterans groups and the military support community. When veterans, military service members or dependents come to an EHN facility, they will work with a Military Liaison who has been trained to meet their unique needs. When dealing with mental health conditions such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), interaction and information sharing with an individual who is coping with similar experiences can often alleviate difficult situations.

Warrior Java cafe

Please share-Warrior Java Cafe is on Facebook!

We are proud to welcome you to Warrior Java Café, located inside the El Paso Military Resiliency Center.

This is more than a coffee shop. It is a place where veterans, service members, and military families can connect, recharge, and find support.

Many warriors return home carrying invisible wounds — the stress, trauma, and challenges that are not always seen.

Our mission is to create a place where those warriors know they are not alone.

Here, conversations happen.Support is built.Resilience grows.
So when you stop by for a cup of coffee, you're doing more than enjoying a drink.

You're supporting a mission that serves those who served.
