Today on Roger That, you get to meet the one, the only Fred Young. Everyone here on #TeamHVAF knows and adores Fred, and after this episode, I know you will too. He struggled with alcoholism before and after his time in the military, and even experienced homelessness here in Indianapolis for 5 years. But thankfully, this last April, he celebrated 24 years of sobriety! Now, not only does he serve his fellow veterans, he also helps them achieve recovery as a peer mentor here at HVAF. We are so thankful for his expertise and passion these last 19 years!
