Well-being for purpose, connection and strength

We envision a connected military community where every individual has the tools, support and purpose to thrive in service and beyond.

The challenges

Research shows that 60% to 70% of military community members don’t seek help for mental health needs, often choosing to push through it alone. When they do reach out, they may encounter providers unfamiliar with military life, leaving them feeling misunderstood or unsupported.

After separation, many veterans describe a loss of tribe, purpose and connection, a gap that can lead to isolation.

For spouses and families, repeated transitions can make it difficult to maintain social bonds and continuity of care.

Our advocacy in action

We’re committed to positive change in how we think about well-being — moving beyond crisis response to support that ensures everyone has a chance to thrive.

Shifting the narrative

We’re working to reframe help-seeking as strength — not weakness — whether for mental health, finances or career guidance.

Peer networks

We’re investing in peer-to-peer support — veterans helping veterans, spouses supporting spouses — to create safe, trusted spaces for guidance.

Empowering providers

We’re partnering with health care and community organizations to build cultural competency and readiness to engage with the military community.

Whole-person focus

Our well-being strategy spans emotional, social and spiritual dimensions — the three proven drivers of a flourishing life.
