We, the Teamsters Veteran Caucus Connecticut Chapter 1, organize and assemble for the purpose of serving those who have taken it upon themselves to serve our great nation in both times of war and peace. Seeking to foster an atmosphere of camaraderie amongst veterans and non-veterans within our respective workplaces, we stand unified under the common cause of tending to the welfare of our country's military veterans past, present, and future. We strive to become a reliable source of knowledge and resources that veterans within our community may access quickly and effectively. Our primary goals are to ensure that veterans within our organization are accurately informed of their rights and benefits which they so justly deserve, as well as mobilizing a diverse group of volunteers who stand ready and able to answer the call when a veteran is in need. We stand to acknowledge and enrich the lives of these noble servants, so their acts of patriotism and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
