Veterans Day message from Tennessee Secretary of State

WLAF News

By Tre Hargett

NASHVILLE, TN (SPECIAL TO WLAF)- On this Veterans Day, I would like to honor the courage and sacrifice of Tennessee’s service members, Veterans, and their families.

Earlier this year, Tennessee launched Tennessee Veterans Connect, a free statewide platform that brings trusted resources together in one place. Service members, Veterans, and their families can search for services and connect with verified providers offering employment, healthcare, housing, education, and other community support throughout Tennessee.

Tennessee businesses are important partners in this effort. Please consider sharing Tennessee Veterans Connect with your employees, customers, and community networks. Community based organizations that provide programs or services to the military-connected community can also claim an existing listing or add a program at no cost, helping ensure Veterans can find the support available to them. For more information call 615-741-2345. You can also visit here.

Thank you for helping Tennessee honor service with action. (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED-11/11/2026-NOON)
