Warriors A Team - Chairman of the Board     

2016 - present 

                 

Warriors A Team is a 501(c) non-profit dedicated to inspiring Veterans to assist Veterans as they acclimate from military life to a happy, productive, and proud civilian life. 

 

Are you aware that over the next 4 years the US Labor Department projects 1.5 million Veteran Warriors will exit a branch of our United States military. After spending years defending our liberties and protecting our way of life in a disciplined environment with a feeling of purpose, importance and respect, many of our Veterans find it very challenging reentering the civilian world. 

 

Sadly, every month nearly 1,000 United States Veterans attempt to take their own lives and every hour of every day a Veteran takes his or her own life.   More United States troops have died from suicide than have been killed in Afghanistan since 2001.
