Warfighter Advance, Inc. is a 501c3 (2017), based in Lexington Park, MD. We have developed a program that significantly helps warfighters return to productive civilian lives from various theaters of war. We have data to support our assertion that our program helps warfighters.
What happens to warfighters when they come home from war has been with us long as there has been war: other societies have helped warfighters readjust. We do not. The result: twenty veterans, on average, commit suicide each day. Many more are isolated with little or no quality of life.
Veterans are trained to deploy to high stress theaters of war. They learn to operate efficiently there, and they do. They are often drawn to the sense of singular purpose and discipline, the heart pounding pace, risk and danger, and the pure unconditional support found in the brotherhood and sisterhood of their comrades-at-arms.
But, they are not trained how to return home to what many veterans perceive as the less focused, less disciplined, less urgent and more emotionally confusing civilian world, or even warned that this may be a struggle. This gap between military life and civilian life often triggers trauma-related behaviors that interfere with jobs, family, life control and living itself.
The Warfighter Advance program closes that gap. We help our participants regain control of their lives.
Data validate our success and effectiveness.
Our participants come to our training experiencing distress. Their level of distress drops, by 23% on average, by the time they leave the training.
Our participants come to our training describing themselves as
• non- or minimally-functional.
Two weeks after they go home, they report themselves to be
• starting to see a path out of their dysfunction or
• planning action or
• taking action and implementing positive change in their lives.
Our post-deployment alumni mentors check in with our graduates monthly, on-going. This ensures the alumni maintain gains and continues progressing to the next level.
Warfighter Advance provides a private Facebook page and other community platforms to alumni that serves as an effective vehicle for maintaining this warfighter community, our Alumni Association. This effort includes a monthly personal outreach (email and telephone) that touches every graduate in the community and initiates focused mentor contact if an alumni needs assistance. There is no time limit on this outreach program.
The program is available for free to vets who feel they need our services: all wars and conflicts, all services, all states, male and female, no discrimination on any dimension. All costs, including transportation, are covered by our fundraising.
