Each year the Connecticut Veterans Legal Center comes together to celebrate Veterans Day by honoring those impacting the lives of Connecticut Veterans. We also use this as an opportunity to raise funds and celebrate the ongoing work of ensuring that all who served in our U.S. Military have access to justice and the resources they need to overcome legal barriers to housing, healthcare, income, and recovery.
Saluting Service draws a diverse audience of individuals from across the legal, military, Veteran, healthcare, and philanthropic communities. As we celebrate the organization’s 15th-anniversary this year, we will welcome a special guest keynote speaker to explore the unique issues facing Veterans in addition to honoring individuals and organizations that have made an incredible difference in the lives of Veterans.
After reaching venue capacity in 2023, Connecticut Veterans Legal Center is excited to welcome more opportunities for guests to join us as we return to the historic Canal Dock Boathouse.
Volunteer Opportunities
There will be a limited number of volunteer opportunities available leading up to and the night of Saluting Service. Volunteers will primarily be helping with set-up, check-in, path finding for guests, and take down. Volunteers are invited to join us for dinner.
