PROGRAMS “ Thanks to you, I know it’s all about finishing together, not finishing first. It’s extremely important to have my brothers and sisters by my side as I continue through the next phase of my life.” — WOUNDED WARRIOR TANIKI RICHARD (CENTER) CONNECTION Get in touch with resources and people who understand your needs. During military service, warriors form bonds with one another that are as strong as family ties. WWP helps to reform those relationships by providing wounded warriors opportunities to connect with one another through community events and veteran support groups. We also provide easy access to local and national resources through outreach efforts and with the help of partners. H ALUMNI CONNECTION PROGRAM Offers unique experiences for warriors to build camaraderie with peers, create a network of support in their communities, and get involved with other WWP programs. H RESOURCE CENTER Works with warriors to identify their individual needs, determine next steps, and guide them to appropriate programs and services. H PEER SUPPORT GROUPS Small, warrior-led groups that allow warriors to connect with their peers and strengthen bonds through shared experiences in a safe, judgment-free environment. H COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS Partners with other military and veteran support organizations to create systems of support for warriors across the nation and in their communities. H GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS As the voice of our nation’s warriors in Washington, D.C., the WWP Government Affairs team fights to resolve the most pressing issues that matter most to veterans.
