EDGEWATER, MD — Hope & Healing for Heroes: A Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Event planned for March 30 from 9 a.m. to noon has been canceled out of concern for the new coronavirus. The event was to be held at the American Legion Post 226 in Edgewater. All Vietnam veterans and one guest were invited to attend for free.

In 2020, Hospice of the Chesapeake commemorated Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Day with this special event. The goal of the event is to help veterans "find joy, healing and support."

Vet to Vet Cafe, scheduled for March 21 at the Annapolis Vet Center, has been rescheduled for April 18. It also is hosted by Hospice of the Chesapeake. This free event encourages military veterans to socialize with other veterans.
