WHAT'S NEW AT WWP

PTSD Awareness: How to Recognize and Treat Symptoms in Veterans

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. For veterans, these events can stem from combat exposure, trauma, or other highly stressful, life-threatening situations experienced during service. While anyone can develop PTSD, veterans face unique risk factors that can make the condition more complex and persistent.

How Veterans Are Strengthening America’s Workforce

When veterans transition to civilian life, they often search for jobs in civilian fields where they can put unique experiences and skills to work. However, finding meaningful employment after their service is often easier said than done. According to the latest Wounded Warrior Project^® (WWP) Warrior Survey*, nearly 6 in 10 warriors face underemployment. Furthermore, 67% of warriors reported experiencing financial strain, a rising trend since 2021.

Breaking Down the Branches: Celebrating 250 Years of the Army, Navy, and Marines

In 2025, as America marks its 250th birthday, three of its oldest military branches – the Army, Navy, and Marine Corps – will celebrate the same milestone. These institutions have shaped American history. They stand as symbols of national defense, resilience, and service. Wounded Warrior Project^® (WWP) is proud to stand beside those who stand to serve. No matter the uniform, WWP will honor and empower wounded veterans, their families, and caregivers well into the future.

The Power of Play Therapy: How One Veteran Found Healing from PTSD

For years, Jonathan “J” Dagen found life anything but joyful. An Army veteran who survived combat, homelessness, and years of emotional pain, J struggled daily trying to find peace. He never imagined a friendly voice on the phone and a pre-packaged LEGO^® building kit would lead him out of the darkness.

New WWP And Comcast Partnership Brings Warriors Together

Connection Changes Everything: New Wounded Warrior Project and Comcast Partnership Brings Warriors Together

For many veterans, the transition to civilian life can feel like stepping into an unfamiliar world. The camaraderie, structure, and shared purpose that defined their military service are suddenly gone. But connection can be a lifeline, and through a new partnership with Comcast, WWP is making it easier for warriors to build those bonds.

“Wounded Warrior Project doesn’t just help with one aspect of a Warrior’s life; it’s very well rounded. It’s not just handing out money. They are a hand up, not a handout.”
