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.
