Urban Christian Veterans provides a safe place for Christian Veterans of Color to discuss the challenges we face in our daily lives. Being a person of color has its challenges. Being a Christian has its challenges. Being a veteran has its challenges. In addition, many of us suffer with PTSD as a result of things we experienced during our military service. All of those factors being combined makes for a unique, and sometimes very challenging life experience that is seldom talked about in public forums.
