Battle Buddy Bridge (B3) - Peer Support
The Battle Buddy Bridge® (B3) is a veteran peer-to-peer program developed by Volunteers of America that provides services and opportunities to military veterans and their families. B3 trains and certifies veterans as peer support specialists who function as community resource navigators. Battle Buddies work in squads to help other veterans and their families get access to housing, health care, family support, training, employment, and legal services. By working as B3 Battle Buddies, Veterans get an opportunity to re-engage in cooperative, purpose-driven activities for which they receive professional training, employment, and career development as well as various forums for multi-sector networking to aid in their own reintegration journeys.
