Healing Minds & Rebuilding Lives
Transformative Care is how we bridge the gap between what Green Berets endure on mission and the support they need to heal when they come home.
Green Berets are trained to the highest level to accomplish the world’s most difficult and dangerous tasks. However, they receive no tools to cope with the stress, loss, and heartache of such a life. The Special Forces Foundation identified this significant training gap. If we train them to the highest level for war, why not train them equally for transitioning away from that life?
We have partnered with clinics and foundations such as Phoenix Rising, Healing Comms, Laurel Ridge, Iconic Infusions, Stella, Warriors Heart, CAYA Sanctuary, VETS, Headstrong, and others to provide Green Berets with the treatment they deserve at no cost. Treatments include mental health counseling and therapy, doctor-prescribed alternative and holistic medicines like ketamine and psychedelic ceremonies, ganglion nerve blocks for PTSD and anxiety, support dogs, sound therapy, and more. Through our Transformative Care Campaign, we are expanding our network of partners and resources to get struggling Green Berets the treatment they have earned.
Transformative Care Partners
No single clinic can meet every need. That is why we partner with a network of proven programs—each bringing a different strength to the fight against PTSD, addiction, and the invisible wounds of war. Below are just a few of the partners helping Green Berets reclaim their lives.
VETS
VETS supports combat veterans through psychedelic-assisted therapies delivered in safe, medically supervised settings. Through our partnership, Green Berets can access life-changing treatment that targets the root causes of trauma—not just the symptoms.
