Divorce Support: Finances, Benefits, and Rights
Navigate Change with Clarity, Support, and Confidence
Separation and divorce can be some of life’s toughest transitions—especially within the military and veteran community, where unique challenges and complexities often arise. From feeling distanced from the community you’ve relied on, to navigating financial questions, benefits, and co-parenting, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or isolated.
This session is led by our guest speakers, Michelle Buonincontri, Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA) & Valerie Speltz, Federal Contractor with the Reserve Component Transition Assistance Advisor Program, and our very own VSN Peer Leader. This is a supportive space to connect with others who truly understand what you’re going through. Whether you’re separated, divorced, or considering separation, you’ll find empathy, practical insights, and real conversation here. You don’t have to walk this path alone—let’s help each other move forward with confidence and clarity.
