Overview

Mission

Warrior Wellness Program, Inc. provides alternative therapies, services and community engagement to combat veterans, active duty military and their spouses. Services are primarily delivered through the five-day Accelerated Wellness Program (AWP), an effective program using Accelerated Resolution Therapy(ART), Integrative Resolution, adaptive yoga and other alternative therapies.

What it reported doing in 2024

In 2024, Warrior Wellness Program conducted 22 Accelerated Wellness Programs serving 124 combat veterans, active duty members and their spouses. AWP is a highly effective 5 day program utilizing an integrative approach of alternative therapies. AWP participants receive 5 sessions each of Accelerated Resolution Therapy and Integrative Restoration. The combination of these two therapies along with other alternative therapies including adaptive yoga, equine therapy, art and music therapy, show that participants experience a 60% reduction in PTSD, 68% reduction in depression, 65% reduction in anxiety, 53% reduction in stress, 26% reduction in pain outcomes and a 29% reduction in sleep dysfunction. In addition to AWP, individual sessions of ART were provided to 96 individuals.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
