I am a female veteran with PTSD and recent domestic abuse who was denied help by this organization. I requested a bus ticket to a VA treatment facility in Oregon for which I was accepted. I have verifiable proof of my situation and that housing is part of my program. Yet I was denied. Does this organization have something against female veterans that they would behave this way? I am appealing this decision to management. We'll see if they'll step up to the plate and support the troops or not.
I volunteer for Traveler's Aid by working at San Diego International Airport every Saturday night. I am one of 350+ volunteers. Every 4 hour shift I help about 75-100 travelers who need guidance or assistance or sometimes just a friendly place to vent their frustrations from a day of travel. It is a wonderful group of people to work with. I have been doing it for about 4 years and wouldn't change a thing! We work closely with the Harbor Police, the various airlines, hotels, transportation companies, and others. Interested in helping? Contact them!!
