He was an active member of NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health)\, Bazelon Center\, Goodwill Industries\, NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) and Faces and Voices of Recovery. He was the founder and former Chairperson of the James A. Haley Veterans Hospital Veterans Advocacy Council. He also served on the Florida State Advisory Council on Jail Diversion Trauma-Related for OEF/OIF Veterans and on the Central Florida Behavioral Health Network Board of Directors. His volunteer work began with the Salvation Army’s Borden Avenue Veterans Residence in Long Island City\, NY when he became homeless for the first time. He worked with Catholic Charities Food Pantries\, Swords to Plowshares in San Francisco\, CA\, Operation Dignity in Oakland\, CA\, Citiview Connections Clubhouse in New York City\, Hillsborough County Recovery & Resiliency Taskforce\, Department of Children and Families Services and a number of grassroots organizations doing homeless outreach and jail diversion.
