A Space to Connect, Collaborate, and Contribute
In every community, there are people who step forward—not for applause, but because they truly care. They check in, pitch in, and show up. If that sounds like you, you’re not alone—and you’re exactly who we had in mind when we created the Be Connected Hive.
The Hive is an online space built just for people like you: those who support Arizona’s service members, veterans, and their families in ways big and small. Whether you’re a seasoned pro in a nonprofit, a new volunteer, a government partner, or someone who simply wants to make a difference, the Hive is your place to belong.
What Is the Be Connected Hive?
The Hive is a members-only online community for those across Arizona who are working to make a positive impact in the lives of service members, veterans, and their families. It’s part of the Be Connected program, Arizona’s statewide initiative to strengthen support for all who serve.
This isn’t just another forum or social network. The Hive is built around real connection, meaningful collaboration, and a shared commitment to service. Inside the Hive, you can:
- Chat with peers who are doing similar work in other parts of the state
- Ask questions and get answers in real time
- Share strategies, success stories, and lessons learned
- Find out about upcoming trainings and events
- Discover new programs, services, and resources
Who Should Join?
If you’re asking, “Is the Hive for me?”, chances are, it is. The Hive is open to anyone in Arizona who is involved in supporting the military and veteran community, including:
- Nonprofit and community-based organization staff
- Government employees and agency partners
- Health care and behavioral health professionals
- Educators and school support staff
- Faith-based leaders and volunteers
- Employers and HR professionals

Why Join the Hive?
Because collaboration makes everything stronger. When we come together, we:
- Learn faster
- Solve problems more creatively
- Support one another through challenges
- Spark new ideas and partnerships
The Hive is a place where shared goals turn into shared solutions. It’s where you can stay up to date, gain insight, and contribute your voice to conversations that matter.
And it’s not just peer-to-peer, you’ll also have access to members of the Be Connected team, who are there to listen, support, and share updates and opportunities as they arise.
