Rick Hannon’s work with homeless veterans and Veterans Bridge Home, Rick shares his background as an Army combat veteran with two Iraq deployments, a son of a Vietnam veteran, and a Gold Star brother whose Marine sibling was killed in Fallujah. He describes his own difficult transition, work in adaptive sports, and five years as a Mecklenburg County VSO helping veterans with claims and VA housing programs. Rick explains Veterans Bridge Home as a local, community-based connector across the Charlotte metro region (including nearby South Carolina), helping veterans navigate VA healthcare, benefits, housing, food support, peer support, and suicide prevention through the Staff Sergeant Gordon Fox grant, plus community events like Veterans Coffee and disc golf. The discussion covers mentorship, TAP program gaps, employer partnerships and career workshops, newsletters and events, replacing lost DD214s via archives/VSOs, survivor benefits and end-of-life planning, and life insurance options. 00:00 Welcome And Intro 01:48 Rick Takes The Stage 02:35 Gold Star Brother Story 03:39 Leaving Army To College 05:36 VSO Work And Homeless Aid 07:51 What Veterans Bridge Home Does 09:43 Local Resource Navigation 11:42 Gordon Fox Grant And Suicide 13:26 Veterans Coffee And Outreach 15:07 Events And Getting Connected 16:27 Service Area And Mission 85 17:49 Benefits Questions And Widows 20:12 Community Support And Volunteering 22:49 Mentoring Veterans Forward 23:21 TAP Program Gaps 24:35 DD214 Tips and Records 26:07 Veterans Bridge Home Impact 27:15 Employment Pipeline Explained 30:02 Newsletter and Community Events 31:10 Recovering Lost Vietnam Records 35:53 End of Life Planning 36:30 Insurance Options Q&A 37:57 File Your Own Claim 40:09 Closing, Thanks, and Wrap Veterans Bridge Home More Information Brew and Chew Sponsors: Right At Home Care Patrol Weezy Inc
