The Silver Spring Vet Center can explain to you where to register for:

• VA medical benefits
• Claims for VA service-connected disability
• VA education benefits

We can connect you to VA resources such as the DC VA Medical Center and the Montgomery County Community Based Outpatient Clinic.

We can also connect you with community resources such as the Maryland Department of Veterans Affairs, the Wounded Warrior Project, Serving Together Project and to Veteran community based organizations and activities, such as

• Guitars 4 Vets
  •  Guitar for Vets will provide 10 one on one lessons, live or virtually.   

• Heroes on The Water
  • To provide wellness and community to our heroes and their families through kayak fishing and the outdoors.  
• Team RWB
  • Our chapters and the Team RWB App deliver virtual and local, consistent, and inclusive opportunities for veterans and the community to connect through physical and social activity. 
• Salute Military Golf Association (SMGA)
  • The SMGA’s mission is to provide rehabilitative golf programs, experiences, and family inclusive golf opportunities for post 9/11 wounded war veterans in an effort to improve the quality of life for these American heroes.
• Wounded Warrior Project 
  • Through a range of programs and services, we’re transforming the way America’s injured veterans are empowered, employed, and engaged in our communities.
• The Vet Center coordinates social outings for Veterans and their families. For example, a group attended two local Minor League Baseball games, such as Frederick Key and Bowie Baysox. 
• Other activities at the Vet Center support camaraderie such as: cookouts, holiday celebrations, guest speakers and more.
