Who We Are
After War is a veteran-led peer support program dedicated to helping veterans and first responders heal from moral injury. We know the weight of service does not end when the uniform comes off, and the invisible wounds of guilt, shame, and disconnection can be just as heavy as the battles fought overseas or on the front lines at home.
Our mission is to foster resilience, restore purpose, and guide participants toward reconnection, with themselves, their families, their communities, and the natural world. Through structured peer mentorship, community engagement, and outdoor-based retreats, we provide a path toward healing and hope.
We are not a clinical program. Instead, we are a brotherhood and sisterhood of shared experience. Together, we create safe spaces where stories can be told, trust rebuilt, and lives reclaimed.
"Rob"
"Healthy introspective thought, guided by and with brothers, is an invaluable and completely unique experience."
"Jon"
"Being around other people who care, with similar experiences, and being able to see and hear some other people who have the same struggles and experiences share them really helped."
"Kyle"
"The peer to peer conversations around the fire provided mental relief."
