St. Michael's Veteran Services Case ManagerI come to the office with a smile on my face, and I leave the office with a smile on my face, knowing that I have impacted a veteran. I love my fellow veterans. I know what they go through, what they’ve gone through, and what they are going to go through in the future. The amount of services that [Catholic Charities] provides is enormous in its impact to the community.
