“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. We also provide tools and educational resources to support lifestyle and wellness changes for restoration and achievement of the individual's health and wellness goals. Newly launched in 2019 is our interpersonal trauma program designed to assist those who have experienced childhood, sexual or other personal trauma. In march 2019, we moved to a new facility better equipped to serve compromised veterans. The new facility provides us with an additional treatment room where we can offer care for sexual assault victims and expand our trauma programs. The state of colorado has one of the highest suicide rates in the nation which is why we are so very focused on expanding care programs that better combat some of the factors leading to veteran suicide. In addition to our work with clients at our fort collins, colorado clinic, we are launching a monthly free clinic in january 2020 at buckley air force base for our active duty military and their family. This adds a free pop up clinic to our existing 3 monthly free clinics in colorado springs, denver and longmont. Our objective is to provide these much-needed services for veterans coping with trauma and pain, and assist with veteran suicide prevention, in broader geographical areas. In addition to serving our veteran community, we actively participate in yellow ribbon pre and post deployments for active troops along the front range, providing care to returning soldiers and airmen in our front range community. 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.”
