Is this a support group or therapy?

No, Social Club is not a therapeutic or clinical service. It’s a welcoming, peer-led space for connection, conversation, and mutual support.

How should I prepare for the event?

For the best experience, we recommend joining from a quiet, distraction-free space and arriving on time, as participants who join more than 15 minutes late may not be admitted. Be sure to have your Zoom link ready from your confirmation email.

Why can't I register for this event?

You must register at least 72 hours before an event. Most programs are ongoing series with multiple dates. Please check our calendar for upcoming sessions.

Do I have to pay to attend?

No, all events are completely free to attend. We are a grant-based program and believe in removing barriers to connection and support and are proud to offer these sessions at no cost to our community.

Do I need to live in Texas to participate?

No—VSN is based at the University of Texas at Austin’s Institute for Military & Veteran Family Wellness , but we are a nationwide network open to any military-connected individuals in the US and beyond.

Participant Safety Reminder: The Veteran Spouse Network (VSN) is committed to providing a supportive and respectful environment where participants can connect with peers and share their experiences. Because participant safety is our highest priority, confidentiality is not absolute. If a VSN Peer Leader or staff member becomes concerned that a participant or another person may be at risk of serious harm, we may take steps to support safety. Depending on the situation, this could include notifying VSN staff, providing crisis resources, contacting emergency services, making reports required by law, or taking other reasonable actions to protect safety. VSN is a non-clinical peer support program and does not provide emergency services, crisis counseling, therapy, case management, legal advice, or domestic violence advocacy. However, we are committed to connecting participants with appropriate resources when safety concerns arise. By participating in VSN programs, you acknowledge and understand these limits of confidentiality and VSN's commitment to participant safety.
