Giving Voice to Generations of Military Spouse Stories
Veteran Spouse Project (VSP) gives voice to the experiences of military spouses across generations, connects communities, and bridges the gap between military & civilian life through storytelling and theatre.
What We Do
Your Military Spouse Story is Worth Sharing
We do this through our three programs: Stories We Tell, Healing Through Creativity, and Theatrical Programs.
Theatrical Programs
Our Theatrical Programs offer full length original plays and play readings based on actual spouse stories and experiences. We also produce a screening of theatrical monologues written by veteran and military spouses.
VSP’s flagship production is I Will Wait, a poignant, full-length play that shares the U.S. military spouse perspective of over 100 years of fighting wars. Its creation is also VSP’s origin story!
Stories We Tell
Stories We Tell is our verbal “gallery walk” to help the world connect with military spouse voices.
This program houses short, documentary-style videos through our YouTube channel and written stories via our VSP blog. These stories are captured through direct interviews or writing submissions and help illuminate both the diversity of identities within the military spouse community, along with the common experience that binds us together.
Healing through Creativity
Healing through Creativity is where community happens.
This program hosts creative arts and writing workshops that support the military spouse in mind and spirit. Military spouses can find resources to care for their service members & families. What they can’t often find is a safe space in which to explore who they are, journey through their experiences, and bond with those who understand. That’s our community.
