STRENGTHENING SUPPORT NETWORKS FOR THE VETERANS COMMUNITY

Understanding Veteran Support Organisations

A Veteran Support Organisation (VSO) is an entity dedicated to providing essential services and assistance to veterans and their families.

Veteran Support Organisations (VSOs) are crucial in providing the necessary support and services that veterans and their families need.
These organisations are instrumental in addressing key areas such as mental health support, job placement, educational opportunities, and fostering social connections.

The goal of VSOs is to ensure that veterans and their families receive comprehensive care, respect, and the support they need to thrive following service life.
Linking your VSO with APOD gives you access to a network of support, boosting your services to the veteran community.

About Australian Partners of Defence

Founded in 2012, APOD is a uniquely Australian initiative designed to offer more than just everyday savings to Defence families. Created by veteran families for veteran families, we negotiate exclusive benefits and recognition for our members–ranging from savings on everyday shopping to job resources for veterans.

Our platform doesn’t just list discounts; we’re also stepping into the veteran employment sector. We aim to be a comprehensive resource for veteran job listings and military job opportunities. In short, when we talk about financial wellbeing, we see it holistically and employment is a major part of financial wellbeing.
