Some veterans come home and feel like they’re stepping into a new chapter.
For Efrain Scott, it felt like he’d stepped into a world he didn’t recognize.
After serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, the structure and purpose he knew in the Marines disappeared overnight. Civilian life was confusing, frustrating, and sometimes dangerous. He was trying to push through it alone until he walked into a Vet Center and met someone who finally understood the burden Efrain carried.
That moment led Efrain to Combat to Community (C2C) with
@vetshelpingvets, one of our Got Your 6 Network partners in the Bay Area. With support funded by
@craignewmark Philanthropies, Efrain found a space where he was heard without judgment and a path forward, not back to who he was, but toward who he could become. And that’s where everything started to shift. A social worker listened without judgment, and Efrain found a path not back to who he was, but forward to who he could become.
Today he’s the one helping veterans navigate that same transition. Full circle.
