PREVIEW: USMC Veteran, Bill Sterbinsky

USMC Veteran, William Anthony (Bill Sterbinsky) of SRQ Vets is the real deal. He's a doer, not a talker. Bill talks a little bit about where he came from #sarasota - his time in the #military and what happened once he ETS'd (went back home from the military). He struggled and then decided to do something about it by starting SRQ Vets. Realizing the bigger picture of military veterans who were struggling within the VA system, Bill became an attorney who helps military veterans with their claims.

This is PART 1 of a special series highlighting some of the struggles military veterans go through after they return home and throughout their journey at the VA. This is NOT a bash the VA system series. This is a history of the VA, some of the red tape within the VA and and educational piece to help figure it all out. It's also a good time for those who work at the VA to reflect on what can be done better to help our veterans. It's also a FACT based series, with statistics from the VA's on IG reports.

I loved interviewing Bill so much, Part 2 airs next week, this is when we really dig into the meat and bones of the VA.

"SRQ Vets is a locally based 501(c)(3) non-profit founded and led by volunteers who are all veterans serving veterans in the SRQ area. We offer a broad range of assistance to local vets in need, including helping in the Veterans Court, Operation Rubix, aiding veterans in need of transportation, home modifications for disabled vets, and much more. Our scope is broad, but focuses entirely on local vets, helping make a local impact. We work on a 100% volunteer basis where the we take resources donated or raised locally and use those resources to help our local veterans or donate to veteran organizations that will specifically use those resources to help our local veterans. We have worked hard to become a network of doers and not talkers."

Thank you for your time, Bill. Your work is important, seen and appreciated! 🇺🇸
