Veterans

RAND research shows that veterans who have been deployed are more likely than civilians to experience mental health conditions or cognitive injuries. In fact, one in five U.S. veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan experience PTSD or major depression.

Jeffrey was mortally wounded by the Hidden Wounds of War and found his escape from the torment and pain by his own hand in the late afternoon hours of June 22, 2004 at the age of 23. We must do better for our service members.

Hope is a protective factor for anxiety and depression, and a proactive strategy to address mental health. Our aim is to build out programs specific to Veterans, to ensure they know the what, why, and how of hope.

As Veterans face a significant number of challenges, especially when transitioning from military to civilian life, it is a population that needs to flex hope muscles more than most.

Hopeful Mindsets for Veterans comes with a Workbook for Veteran participants and a Facilitator Guide to facilitate interactions throughout the 8-Module course.
