IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Increasing Positive Civic Engagement. Inspiring more veterans and military family members to engage with our civic and democratic processes catalyzes a cycle of increasing trust and engagement in our democracy across all Americans. Our primary focus in 2022 was the Vet the Vote program, a national campaign to increase leadership and engagement from the veteran and military family community with our democratic process. We believe doing so will not only fill critical needs for our elections to run smoothly (e.g., poll workers) but also increase overall faith and confidence in our elections due to the trust earned by the veteran and military family community through their service to the nation.Our first campaign around the 2022 elections was a resounding success, recruiting over 63,000 new volunteers to serve as poll workers (representing about half of the projected national gap coming into the cycle), building a coalition of 30+ corporate and non-profit organizations, especially veteran and military family support and engagement organizations, and reaching 20M+ Americans through social, podcast, print, and broadcast media. Expenses for these programs are included in line 4a.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Innovating a Prevention Ecosystem. The Prevention Ecosystem program builds on the strengths and capabilities of the veteran and military family community to sustainably increase overall resistance and resilience to hostile foreign, anti-democratic, and violent extremist groups that seek to incite our community members to violence. The goal of this program is to establish a new prevention framework across the veteran and military family community and mobilize specific programs and initiatives which will have a measurable impact on the community, both in terms of reducing participation in anti-democratic and extremist violence, but also, critically, in ensuring the maintenance of the veteran and military family reputation and brand. We recognize that no one organization can be successful on its own, and therefore in 2022 we laid the groundwork to establish an innovative multi-sectoral, and multidisciplinary prevention ecosystem that is organized into targeted working groups for collaboration, ideation, and execution. Expenses for these programs are included in line 4a.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc0Mitigating the Impact of Deceptive Narratives and Influence Operations. Deceptive narratives and influence operations are not new phenomena, but the immediacy, scope and ease of its dissemination and consumption through digital media present a new set of challenges to our democracy. Given their station of trust and confidence in American society, veterans and military family members are both an opportune target for, but also, a powerful offense and defense to fight back against and mitigate the impacts on our society as a whole. With this in mind, over the past year we have established a first-of-its-kind ecosystem of partners from across government, tech, academia, and other mission-aligned organizations to launch research-backed initiatives that will have a measurable impact. Work has included establishing and running a multisectoral working group, generating prebunking content in conjunction with a partner organization, and distributing content that addressed some of these deceptive narratives. Expenses for these programs are included in line 4a.
