HOW DO YOU FEEL?
We believe you will function better in society if you have a chance to share the high and low points of your time in service and your subsequent return home with other veterans and do not carry them around inside you.

It is okay to have strong feelings about your experiences, both positive and negative. Too often our civilian family and friends are just not able to listen. Our group is a place to express those feelings.

Resolving pain and finding meaning in the experience restores health. Our group is founded on the belief that in a safe and trustworthy environment, veterans can and will begin to resolve their painful war experiences and the natural loss associated with transitioning environments.


Iraq and Afghanistan-era veterans are good men and women.
Veterans of war are required to make spontaneous decisions that may have life-or-death consequences in an environment of intense fear. It is important that the veteran understand that he or she made the best decision possible given the information he or she had and the circumstances under which he or she found him or herself.

War and military service impact veterans. Veterans who have gone to war have been impacted by the negative experiences of war. These experiences may influence current behaviors and ways of thinking. Some veterans struggle with painful memories and self-blame while others miss the close relationships that were formed or the structure and self-discipline that the military provided.

Resolving pain and finding meaning in the experience restores health. Our group is founded on the belief that in a safe and trustworthy environment, veterans can and will begin to resolve their painful war experiences and the natural loss associated with transitioning environments.

This system works. Our group is based on the proven vets4vets model.
