In crisis or worried about someone?

Chapter 01

TheShop

Hands busy, head quiet.

A Tuesday night woodworking class off Sahara. No intake form, no eligibility maze — just a bench, a tool, and something to show for the evening. VetGRID finds the room and tells you what it costs, when it starts, and who else will be there.

Two people working side by side at a woodworking bench, hands guiding a plank while a child watches.

Chapter 02

TheTrail

The unit scattered. The formation doesn't have to.

Trail crews, ruck groups, and desert cleanups outside the city. Movement plus people is the pairing that keeps a week from collapsing inward — so we surface the ones close to your side of town and open on your days off.

A small group of hikers walking a wooded trail together in early morning light.

Chapter 03

TheTable

Show up once and the week has a shape again.

Spouses, dependents, and caregivers carry the load too, so they get accounts and matches of their own. The goal is never a directory. The goal is a table with people already sitting at it.

A group of friends gathered around a table sharing a home-cooked meal together in warm afternoon light.

The app

Tryitrighthere

Five live screens from the VetGRID app — Interest, Discovery, the GRID map, Community, and Resources. Swipe or use the arrows, then tap around: categories re-rank the feed, map pins open detail, and saves stick, exactly like the real thing.

How it works

Everydetail, builttobeused

Interest first

Eight plain-language categories. No diagnosis, no eligibility maze — just what you actually want to do.

The GRID map

Veteran listings and verified services on one map, with a fully equivalent list view.

Explainable matches

Every card says why it surfaced: your interests, distance, rating, and who it's open to.

Family included

Spouses, dependents, and caregivers get accounts and matches of their own.

Saves that stick

Bookmark a class, and your week has a shape again before Monday arrives.

Funded, not billed

Grants, donations, and tax-deductible in-kind partner seats cover participation.

Neighbors of different ages planting seedlings together in a raised-bed community garden on an overcast morning.

Why this matters

Isolationistherisk.Connectionistheintervention.

Veteran suicide is rarely about one bad day. It builds as structure disappears, the unit scatters, and days lose their shape. Belonging, routine, and a reason to leave the house are among the strongest protective factors we have — and they are buildable.

VetGRID exists upstream of crisis. We are not a hotline and not a clinic; we are the bridge to the ordinary, worthwhile things that make a week feel like it belongs to you again.

Gotsomethingaveterancouldshowupto?

Shops, studios, gyms, ranges, classrooms, trail crews, nonprofits — if you can host, teach, or hold a few seats, you belong in the grid.

Free for veterans, dependents, and caregivers. VetGRID is not a crisis line — if you’re in crisis, call 988 and press 1.
