OUR MISSION

​​As an organization, we recognize the long-term consequences for veterans and families who live with invisible wounds of war and provide them support where possible while advocating for the person in the trenches every day, the veteran spouse who needs help navigating their role as a caregiver.
​
Veteran caregivers and their families sacrifice daily for their wounded warrior. Our mission is to support these hidden heroes on their journey to create a home — and a life — that is once again whole by providing education, resources and support.

Our low-income, minority and PTSD combat veteran spouses and their families have sacrificed so much.  Despite this these strong individuals express their deep love for their veteran, cherishing the good days and trudging through the more difficult stretches as they struggle to hold their families together.

​They deserve the support of their community.

​CAREGIVERS

You are not alone. If someone you love is dealing with the trauma of combat exposure, it can be difficult to know how to support them. ​PTSD affects more than the mental health of the individual — it also impacts the person's family and friends.

OUR PROGRAMS

​We stand up for those who stand by those who served. Through personal communication, a private Facebook group, small gifts, and more, our programs offer support to spouses and families touched by the effects of PTSD, traumatic brain injury, or both.  

​BLOOD STRIPE  l  A Spouse's Story ​
