This is a nationwide effort uniting counties to support military veterans led by the National Association of Counties. In addition to lighting county buildings, residents and businesses are encouraged to participate by simply changing the exterior light bulb of their home to a green bulb. Shining a green light lets our Veterans know they are seen, appreciated, and supported. At the end of the day Operation Green Light raises awareness around the unique challenges many veterans face.
In Madison County, Alabama (where SSV is headquartered)Commissioner Violet Edwards spearheads this initiative. The commission is partnering with Still Serving Veterans to inform the community about the county, state, and federal resources available to assist veterans and their families.
