What we aim to solve
We create healthy transitions. Veterans transitioning to civilian life need support in three critical and often overlooked areas: finding a renewed sense of purpose, mindfulness training to build resilience, and a sense of community. We’re committed to providing all three through our programs and events.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
1-Day Pathfinder Event
These events offer healing and skill-building utilizing powerful tools like physical activity, nature, mindfulness, meditation and camaraderie. Pathfinder events, held throughout the year, welcomes first-timers to Veteran's PATH, and serves as an ongoing support network for returning veterans. This program is provided to veterans free of cost.
Evidence-Based Mindfulness Trainings
As one of our core offerings, we’re partnering with eMindful and Mt. Carmel Veterans Service Center to provide free, online mindfulness training for veterans transitioning to civilian life
Online Anchor Programs
Now fully online, our anchor program combines a 5-day intensive with a 15-week practice period, supporting veterans struggling with reintegration issues that can include post-traumatic stress, military sexual trauma, substance abuse, and family/caregiver matters. We integrate meditation and mindfulness practices into a disciplined, daily routine so that, together, veterans can open up about experiences and heal inner conflicts they never thought possible.
The Chopra Foundation Partnership
The Chopra Foundation and Veteran’s PATH are partnering to provide one million veterans with access to proven mind-body tools and support via classes, workshops and other programs. Additionally, the partnership will use innovative technologies to provide immediate, confidential 24/7 support – for veterans by veterans – so that all veterans can get the help they need, when they need it. The ultimate goal is to significantly reduce negative outcomes and improve overall resilience, mental health, and well-being for veterans and their families.
