Chaplain Cohen serves as the official Chaplain in several Veterans Service Organizations, however his ministry transcends beyond those organizations to all Veterans who may not yet be affiliated with a VSO or church.
When Veterans were on active duty, there was a Chaplain to whom they could reach out, but now since they've transitioned to the civilian world (however long ago that was), they may not yet be connected to a spiritual resource.
While a Veteran is in a VA facility, there is a Chaplain to whom they could reach out, but now since they've been discharged, they may not be connected to a spiritual support resource.

Chaplain Cohen has a weekly outreach in those facilities to serve our Veterans regardless of their current situation to connect them with resources and most importantly THE Source (God).
