Allen Aldenberg: Helping NH’s Military and Veteran Community With The Franklin Campus

What efforts are underway to help New Hampshire’s Military and Veteran Community? With so many veteran service organizations, how can a member of the military, a veteran, and their families find the services to help with their unique issues?

We are joined by Allen Aldenberg – Chief Military and Veterans Services Officer, Easterseals NH & VT, as we discuss the mission of the Easterseals New Hampshire Military and Veterans Campus in Franklin, NH

The Easterseals NH Military & Veterans Campus in Franklin is New Hampshire’s first all-in-one space for service members, Veterans, and their families. Set on 15 scenic acres along the Merrimack River and rail trail, our campus brings affordable housing, essential services, and outdoor recreation together in one supportive community.

Part of their mission is to build collaboration with other NH Veteran Service Organizations (VSO). In that spirit, the Easterseals NH Military & Veterans Campus has teamed with SWAM to host the 2025 Annual Veteran Service Organization Summit on September 9th. It will be the first time that hundreds of attendees, representing many of the virtual NH VSOs, will be together and visiting the Easterseals NH Military & Veterans Campus for the first time.

If you are a VSO interested in participating in this year’s and future submissions, reach out to SWAM here.

WFEA will be broadcast on the morning of the 2025 Annual Veteran Service Organization Summit.
