Mission Statement
We help our military and veterans to find purpose in life at home. Working with them to overcome the physical, mental, and emotional problems. We help them learn, grow, and find their next mission. Meeting the veterans where their needs are and finding tools to help them return home.
Description
A Utah Non-profit Organization created to train military to be able to survive at home. Teaching Veterans how to have passion and purpose in their lives. They have had purpose and meaning in their life and they can have it again. We are trained warriors, but how does a warrior exist without a war? Veterans go through some difficult situations and see things they can't un-see. Where do we get the support and training on how to deal with the emotions and experiences that come from our service and what we've lived through. As Veterans we need to be strong enough to share our experience and feelings to help our Brothers and Sisters in arms. We are losing each other being on our own. Many of our brothers and sisters feel alone, and "unsat". We need to re-connect. We have many similar experiences and these have brought on feelings that we have in common. Let's work together to reduce the number of Military Vets that feel like the have no options.
