Outreach and Visitation Initiative (OVI)
The Outreach and Visitation Initiative is currently suspended indefinitely as per
Veterans Affairs Canada directives. We will provide further
updates and contact our current volunteers when additional information is
received from Veterans Affairs Canada. As of January 2024, there have been no updates. In the meantime, we encourage you to contact your local Legion Branch to explore any local volunteering opportunities that may interest you.
Other Veteran Visitation Programs Through Legion Branches
Many Legion Branches across the country coordinate volunteer visits to Veterans in retirement and long-term care facilities in their community. These visits provide social interaction and a sense of community, and can help identify needs that the Legion may be able to assist with. Please contact your local Legion Branch for information on programs available through your Branch.
