“Many people may not realize that countless Veterans step into the role of caring for aging parents, a spouse with a health condition, or other family members in need. They face the same challenges as civilian caregivers: balancing medical appointments, managing finances, providing emotional support, and navigating complex systems to get the best care possible.” said Deborah Burton, Executive Director of RI Elder Info. “Calling All Veterans Day is a one-stop opportunity for Veterans and caregivers to get the help they need, ask questions, and connect with experts face-to-face.”

Whether you are a Veteran, a family caregiver, or someone who cares about the well-being of those who have served, you are encouraged to attend. This is a day of honor, help, and heart—and a chance to connect with real solutions in one welcoming place.

None of this would be possible without the generous support of Atria Senior Living, our Presenting Sponsor, as well as our Supporting Sponsors: the RI State Long Term Care Ombudsman, Brown University Health, and Greenwich Farms at Warwick. Their dedication makes this day of information, connection, and gratitude possible.
