LAVMP – La Crosse Area Veterans Mentor Program performs 4 main functions: recruiting and training mentors; locating veterans in need of services; assisting veterans as they work to rebuild their lives; and fundraising to sustain the program. Many veterans in the legal system end up in the La Crosse Area Veterans Court. LAVMP supports this treatment court through mentorship of veteran participants and logistics. LAVMP works mainly with Veterans in La Crosse, Monroe, Vernon, Trempealeau, and Jackson counties along with veterans from 21 other counties. Veterans in need of the services of LAVMP offers are those who generally isolate, hide their substance abuse, engage in harmful behaviors, exercise poor self-care and often end up in the legal system. After connecting with these veterans and building a trusting relationship many of these veterans are encouraged to finally address their needs.
• LAVMP has provided services to over 2000 veterans since 2010
• Trained over 46 veteran mentors
• Works with all branches of service and served in various conflicts since Vietnam
• Over 60 have participated in La Crosse Area Veterans Court
• 34 have graduated from LCAVC
