Fighting for those who fought for us

---

We support veterans on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and help to produce the weekly Akicita Lakota Veteran's Hour Radio Show.

The show is aired Sunday mornings on Kili Radio, Voice of the Oglala Sioux Nation  at: http://www.kiliradio.org/

Our Radio Show raises awareness about  issues facing our Nation's Veterans, shining a light on those who  otherwise would be forgotten.

All Relations United assists Veterans in planning  and capacity building as well. ARU Director Bryan is Executive Director of the Akicita Lakota Veterans and ARU Executive DirectorLorelei  is a board member of ALV. 

.

 We assist and advocate for Veterans who have been deported. We work closely with the  Deported Veteran Support House Juarez Bunker in Chihuahua, Mexico. We bring clothing, wheelchairs and supplies and assist Veterans with the process to return home to families and loved ones  in the U. S.

 When deported from the United States to Mexico, Veterans are taken from their families, with only the clothes on their backs, driven across the International Bridge and deposited without any means of sustenance or support. 

Our veteran's are stripped of accumulated Social Security Benefits and cannot access VA facilities to obtain earned benefits. 

 We assist  Dega/Montegnard Veterans and families in North Carolina, recruited by U.S. Special Forces during the Vietnam War. We bring them together with Akicita Lakota, Hmong, Deported Veterans and others for mutual support. 

More than 250,000 Montegnaard Veterans have been tortured and killed, or sent to "reeducation" camps since 1975. Their farmlands confiscated and young girls human trafficked.

We assist the Dega Community to raise awareness of persecution, genocide and loss of resources through advocacy  to government and humanitarian organizations.
