PHASE 01

Mentorship and Mediation

Phase 01 targets mental and emotional factors, having the greatest impact on the successful transition from military to civilian life. Upon registration, participants are assigned a veteran-mentor, who provides support and guidance throughout the program. Participants engage in family mediation sessions, to assist them process the trauma of having a loved-one return from war, as a changed person.

Phase 01 offers PTSD treatment alternatives. Clinical research conducted by the VA has identified the correlation between PTSD and suicidal ideation among vets, while controlling for comorbid diagnoses. By collaborating with vets and their families, VRL implements holistic treatments to manage PTSD symptoms, without reliance on prescription medication.

PHASE 02

Training and Employment

Phase 02 tackles social and physical needs, by reliance on a network of community partnerships. Mentors ascertain the participants educational and vocational goals, and helps them register for educational benefits, identify military friendly schools, and access professional tutoring sessions.

Those in-need of developing new skills may select from a variety of certified training programs, that are followed by job interviews, established through VRL’s network of supporting employers, who offer on-job-training, and full-time employment opportunities.

PHASE 03

Volunteer Service

Phase 03 provides veterans with volunteer opportunities to atone. Participants volunteer for a humanitarian mission, and are given the option of caring for a fellow vet, or an innocent child that was harmed in the crossfire of war.

By recruiting participants, the program maintains self-sufficiency, and conscripts to a diverse team of committed members, who not only understand the programs purpose, but are also uniquely capable of achieving it.
