Confidential Recovery CEO Appears on KUSI About Struggling Veterans

San Diego is home to a large amount of the country’s veteran population.

Scott H. Silverman recently joined KUSI’s Elizabeth Alvarez on Good Morning San Diego to discuss how his organization helps veterans and what can be done to get more San Diego veterans the help they could use.

Scott stressed that for veterans, asking for help is seen as a sign of weakness. Addressing stigma is one of Scott's greatest endeavors, as it is crucial that those who need it feel like it is okay to ask for help. "Hope and help are available, but if you don’t ask for help, you won’t access it," Silverman says.
