Companionship calls are available for Veteran Family Members and Veterans of all ages to connect and engage in one-on-one phone calls with a volunteer. Phone calls offer private and trust-based conversations. Here you can share your thoughts and feelings or discuss everyday events, speaking informally with a caring person.
