Veteran Programs & Support
Veteran Pathways of New England (formerly Clear Path for Veterans New England) offers support through four core pathways designed to help Veterans and their families build stability, connection, wellness, and hope. Explore each pathway below to learn more about the programs and services available.
Housing & Family Support
Our Housing & Family Support programs help homeless and at-risk Veterans find stability through safe housing, case management, and wraparound services. From housing placement and financial assistance to employment support and benefits navigation, we provide coordinated care that helps Veterans regain independence, confidence, and long-term well-being.
Wellness
Our Comprehensive Wellness programs support the whole Veteran—mind, body, and community. Through FitPath, WellPath, and Women’s Wellness for Veterans, we offer structured fitness, mental health support, creative and outdoor activities, and opportunities to build connection, resilience, and long-term wellbeing.
Culinary Services & Food Support
Our Culinary Services provide Veterans and their families with access to nutritious meals, food assistance, and essential resources through weekly Canteen lunches and pantry support. More than food, these gatherings foster connection, dignity, and community while supporting overall wellness and stability.
K9 Service Dog Program
Our K9 Service Dog Program pairs Veterans with highly trained service dogs that support emotional and physical wellbeing. Through hands-on training and peer connection, Veterans build confidence, manage symptoms like anxiety and sleep disruption, and regain independence—benefiting both Veterans and their families.
Housing & Family Support Pathway
The Housing & Family Support Pathway helps Veterans and their families build a safe, stable foundation for long-term success. Through emergency shelter, supportive housing, case management, benefits navigation, and family support services, Veterans receive the resources needed to regain independence and stability. This pathway combines housing assistance, life-skills coaching, and coordinated care to help Veterans rebuild their lives and strengthen their future.
Wellness & Resilience Pathway
The Wellness & Resilience Pathway helps Veterans strengthen their mental, emotional, and physical well-being for long-term success. Through peer support, mindfulness, fitness programs, life coaching, leadership development, and personal growth opportunities, Veterans build resilience, confidence, and healthy coping strategies. This pathway encourages self-awareness, community reintegration, and purpose-driven living while helping Veterans create lasting stability and well-being.
Culinary & Food Security Pathway
The Culinary & Food Security Pathway helps eliminate food insecurity for Veterans and families across New England. Through community meals, food distribution, mobile outreach, culinary training, and nutrition education, Veterans gain access to reliable support while building valuable life and workforce skills. Food-centered programs also create connection, reduce isolation, and strengthen community among Veterans and their families.
Canine-Assisted Programs Pathway
The Canine-Assisted Programs Pathway supports the emotional wellness and personal growth of Veterans through the healing power of the human-canine bond. Through service dog training, therapy dog programs, emotional-support services, and trauma-informed care, Veterans build confidence, reduce anxiety, and develop healthy routines. These programs help strengthen coping skills, emotional resilience, and community connection.
