Today’s guest is Mike Waldron, Executive Director of 23rd Veteran. Their mission it to provide authentic life-changing programs for struggling veterans living with trauma. Patrick helps 23rd Veteran answer a concern for many nonprofits, “How do we attract and retain corporate donations?”
Depression is common among our returning veterans with over 130,000 veteran suicides since 9/11. In 2012, it was estimated that 22 veterans a day commit suicide. 23rd Veteran was created with that shocking statistic in mind.
23rd Veteran is a groundbreaking program working to help veterans adjust back to the civilian world. A nonprofit organization headquartered in Minnesota, 23rd Veteran has created a model which uses brain science, evolutional theory, positive trigger re-association, and positive psychology to assist veterans leaving the military and those who never properly transitioned. 23rd Veteran aims to offer their program in every state where veterans are in need, to drastically improve the negative symptoms of PTSD including depression, substance abuse, homelessness, divorce, and suicide.
