Make Calls To Support New Yorkers

About Mission Vetcheck

The transition into civilian life can be highly challenging for veterans. Studies show 44-72% of veterans experience high stress in military-civilian transition, and half may not access resources post-service. The phone calls you will make help to connect, mobilize, and empower thousands of NYC veterans to lead healthy, purpose-driven lives.  Most city agencies and non-profits do not have the manpower for such scaled outreach. 

Program details:

• The project occurs virtually! You should be in a private, quiet location while making calls.
• Each project is 2 hours long, and follows a specific cadence:
  • You will sign on to a Microsoft Teams Meeting with a Team Leader and other volunteers.
  • You will break out into your CallHub sessions to place calls for 1 hour 30 mins. Afterward, you will return to the Microsoft Teams meeting to debrief with the Team Leader and volunteers.

What you will need:

• Access to a computer, a headset, keyboard, and a Chrome web browser.
