What we aim to solve
In the military support landscape, there is currently a need to create a collective platform that can provide resources that are easily accessible and readily available to a service member or their families. As most people would agree military families face many unique challenges, and that is why The Military Families Program seeks to create a framework for building a more coherent, comprehensive approach to supporting the well-being and readiness of military families. According to a (U.S. Department of Defense [DoD], 2012, study, military families play a critical role in the strength and readiness of our nation’s military. The resilience, readiness, and ability of military families to thrive throughout both the expected and the unexpected challenges and opportunities of military life impact individual service member’s readiness and attentiveness to their mission. We are building that platform.

Bourbiz The Veteran/Military Spouse Networking Event
Veteran Success Resource Group is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to facilitating access to professional and personal resources for Veterans and their Families in an unique networking environment. We do this by coordinating and hosting Veteran Resource Expo events across the United States where we bring together a multitude of resources from nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, businesses, corporate hiring partners and government agencies through an event called Bourbiz.
Bourbiz features our signature sampling of more than 20 different types of Bourbon, Whiskey, Wine, and Scotch during the event or a open bar (depending on venue), as well as meet and greet opportunities with decorated veterans, business influencers, sports stars, and other notable personalities. For this event we have an icebreaker name tag that allows for visual recognition, easily connecting attendees with resource providers. In addition to the vast networking and resource opportunities, As always, our event culminates in a free raffle of autographed memorabilia and other exciting giveaways!
Military Families Market
The Veteran Success Resource Group Foundation holds Military Family Markets across the country to provide food kits, diapers and household goods for Military Families that are experiencing Food Insecurity. IN 2022 40% of active duty enlisted families were facing food insecurity. There is no reason that those who serve cannot provide food or diapers for their families.
