Lt. Gen. Gary Brito
Home Base

This quarter, Beasley Best Community Of Caring is dedicated to helping our veterans who have served our country, as well as their families. We're working with Home Base, a national organization that provides mental health services for Veterans who have served our grateful nation. The organization, based in Boston with a division in Southwest Florida, provides extensive mental health and wellness support for vets and their families.

Home Base also creates content that is relevant to the well-being of vets and their families. Their podcast, Home Base Nation, focuses on this. This week, we're calling attention to a recent episode featuring an interview with Lieutenant General Gary Brito, who is currently the Deputy Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army.

General Brito discusses readiness for action while trusting your brothers and sisters, and mitigating the "enemy" of COVID and managing the military family as a whole. He also reflects on that same time period of George Floyd, and the unwavering emphasis on character, reputation and standard within the Army no matter one's color, religion or background.
