“We have 4 primary sources of volunteer help: 1) volunteermatch: since 2015, we have connected with over 300 volunteers via volunteermatch. Volunteers are usually event-specific, for example, assistance at outreach events, fundraising galas and the monthly walk-in clinics. 2) larimer county internship program: since first participating in the program in 2015, we have hosted over 10 interns. 3) service organizations: these include the young men's service league who provide volunteers for parades and for special projects such as letter writing or toy collection, and the young marines who provide guidance for elderly or compromised veterans at events. 4) staff members: our staff members regularly volunteer for homeless veteran stand down events, yellow ribbon post deployments, parades, and other outreach events.”

“Our mission at healing warriors program is to advance individual well-being for veterans and their families through evidence-based integrative care services. Toward this end, we provide acupuncture, craniosacral therapy, and healing touch treatments for our clients suffering from chronic and severe pain, symptoms of post-traumatic stress, complications from traumatic brain injury, military sexual trauma (mst) and debilitating sleep disturbances. In addition to our work with clients at our fort collins, colorado clinic, in 2018 we added a satellite clinic in greeley, colorado housed inside the northern colorado veterans resource center. In order to expand our reach of much-needed services for veterans coping with trauma and pain, we provide outreach services at monthly pop-up clinics held in colorado springs, longmont and denver. In addition to serving the veteran community, we are diligent in our efforts to initiate care in our active duty population by providing pop-up clinics at our local bases, and through the yellow ribbon pre, during and post deployments. Lastly, we also provide care to our homeless veteran population through our participation at local va stand downs for homeless veterans. We believe that education and self-care are important components in achieving lasting wellness and for this reason we provide materials to our clients for home use to promote self-care.”
