Wounded Warrior Project’s mission is simple: “To honor and empower wounded warriors.”
Achieving this will require help from all of us. Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) began when several veterans and friends, moved by stories of the first wounded service members returning home from Afghanistan and Iraq, took action to help others in need. What started as a program to provide comfort items to wounded service members has grown into a complete rehabilitative effort to assist warriors as they transition back to civilian life.
Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) provides programs and services to severely injured Military service members during the time between active duty and transition to civilian life.
Try to envision a generation of wounded warriors well-adjusted in mind, receiving support to overcome the challenges in readjustment to civilian life.
Wounded Warrior Project’s (WWP’s) Combat Stress Recovery Program addresses the mental health and cognitive needs of service members returning home from war.
Through interactive programs, outdoor rehabilitative retreats, peer support, and professional services, warriors are provided the tools to maintain healthy, meaningful relationships with family and friends, and pursue life goals without the barriers or stigmas associated with mental health issues.
The Mission of Wounded Warrior Project simple and straight forward:
TO HONOR AND EMPOWER WOUNDED WARRIORS
If we do not help support this honorable mission, accomplishing it will be that more difficult.
THE GREATEST TRAGETY IS BEING FORGOTTEN.
Wounded Warrior Project is the Official Charity of THE FRANKLININDEPENDENT JOURNAL. We hope you will join us in our support
