Community Care Planning In Action - Supporting Women Veterans
In this episode we speak to Holly Dinneny, Director of Outreach & Satellite Programs for the Cornerstone Family Programs, Morristown Neighborhood House. Holly describes their peer support program, Operation Sisterhood, a program for female veterans designed to proactively identify, support, and engage female veterans, connecting them to available resources, community allies, key policy makers and a supportive, empowering community of other women warriors. While based in New Jersey and operated under Cornerstone Family Programs/Morristown Neighborhood House, Operation Sisterhood aspires to facilitate meaningful programs, conversations, and connections to support the unique needs and particular challenges female veterans face. With both in-person and virtual program options, Operation Sisterhood serves female veterans in and beyond the boundaries of the Garden State. In 2022, Operation Sisterhood activities will include regular peer support group sessions, frequent One Hour INTEL expert presentations, equestrian therapy, social outings, and a summer camping trip.
