Coffee Chat

Looking for a space to talk, share, and unwind with people who truly understand the ups and downs of military and veteran family life? Coffee Chat is your weekly pause: a chance to reset, connect, and care for yourself alongside fellow spouses and partners who just get it.

Bring your favorite drink and drop in whenever you need a boost. Each session offers warmth, empathy, and real conversation in a relaxed, welcoming space. Come as you are, and leave feeling a little lighter—and a lot less alone.

• Build meaningful connections with fellow military and veteran spouses/partners in a relaxed, peer-led setting
• Share weekly experiences, stories, and challenges in a space where you're heard and understood
• Leave each session feeling supported, recharged, and more connected to your community
