About Vet 2 Vet Worldwide

Vet 2 Vet Worldwide is a peer-to-peer mentorship platform dedicated to connecting Service Members, Veterans, and their Families (SMVF) with trained peer mentors who have walked a similar path. What began as a Hawai'i-based pilot supporting veterans in the Veterans Treatment Court (VTC) system has grown into a comprehensive, trauma-informed support network serving communities wherever veterans live and serve.

Our platform brings together veterans, active-duty service members, family members and caregivers, law enforcement professionals, first responders, clinicians, attorneys, and language ambassadors into a single, connected community. Through mentorship, recovery resources, wellness check-ins, and professional guidance, we help individuals navigate the challenges of reintegration, recovery, and personal growth — honoring the principle that peer support is most effective when it comes from someone who truly understands.

Vet 2 Vet Worldwide is built and maintained by Vet2Vet Worldwide Inc., a veteran-led organization grounded in the values of service, resilience, and community. Our approach is informed by SAMHSA's six trauma-informed principles — safety, trustworthiness, peer support, collaboration, empowerment, and cultural humility — and by the lived experience of the veterans and first responders who power our mentor network. We believe that recovery is not a solo journey, and that no one should have to navigate it alone.

Today the platform connects chapters across the country through a dedicated Coordinator Network — a cross-chapter directory, forum, and one-to-one messaging where coordinators can even launch a Google Meet call right from a conversation. Video conferencing is built in across every role, so mentors, mentees, and coordinators meet face-to-face without leaving the platform. Each chapter can self-set population focus areas — such as women, grief, caregivers, or MST survivors — and coordinators choose Open, Scoped, or Hidden directory visibility, so peers find the right support while sensitive details stay private.
