"MJ connected us with vital Veteran resources and guided us through the VA disability process... Her support also helped us navigate challenges in our marriage. Today, we’re thriving!"

Army Veteran Couple

"Over the 3 years I’ve known MJ, she has helped me in so many ways... through tough relationships, family challenges, and my volunteer work with MVPN. She has been an excellent mentor and brought me light when I was sitting in the dark. I appreciate everything you do for me, my family, our community, and our Veterans."

Veteran Spouse

"I met MJ early in my recovery from opioids and multiple other prescription meds... At a time I needed it the most, I was more than lucky to meet her in SMART's MVFR program. She helped instill in me that it was gonna take time, but I was going to be ok... Now I get the coolest opportunity to co-host a nationwide recovery meeting with her on Monday nights... Truly, rewards of recovery."

Firefighter

"MJ has been a motivated volunteer at the Walker House and with SMART Recovery for as long as I've known her... Her ability to be present for not only herself but others (myself included) has been invaluable in her work as a volunteer and Veteran peer."
