We say, “Thank you for your service.” We say we are “a grateful nation.” But what should we do when “thank you” isn’t enough?
Justice For Vets is the leading organization working to assist justice-involved veterans. Emphasizing resiliency and hope, we provide tangible solutions to address critical issues facing our veterans, such as justice involvement, substance use, and trauma. Hosted by Major General (ret.) Clyde “Butch” Tate, each episode of this podcast takes you on a journey with veterans, subject matter experts, and people doing heroic work on behalf of those who have served.
The Justice For Vets podcast is made possible with funding from the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA).

When Thank You Is Not Enough
I’m a Vietnam Vet who served in a MACV Team. Now, I’m very involved in the military-connect community, advocating for veterans and their families emotional and phsycal well-being.
I found this podcast very helpful in understanding the effects of multiple deployments and the difficulty of readjusting between them. This will be very helpful in my work in Veterans Treatment Court and in my continuing efforts to egage today’s warriors and their families to pursue emotional and physical well-being.
Thank you.
