Every day 21 U.S. Veterans succumb to Post Traumatic Stress and take their own lives in a desperate attempt to put an end to their turmoil and suffering.

Joni and Friends is dedicated to doing everything possible to give our servicemen and women hope in their hardships while saving more lives – and souls – for Christ! We do that through our Warrior Getaway program, and we do that by bringing awareness to the invisible but very real wounds of war.

Vet Centers (Readjustment Counseling)

Vet Centers are community-based counseling centers that provide a wide range of social and psychological services, including professional counseling to eligible Veterans, service members, including National Guard and Reserve components, and their families. Counseling is offered to make a successful transition from military to civilian life or after a traumatic event experienced in the military to include military sexual trauma (MST). Individual, group, marriage and family counseling is offered in addition to referral and connection to other VA or community benefits and services. Vet Center counselors and outreach staff, many of whom are Veterans themselves, are experienced and prepared to discuss the tragedies of war, loss, grief and transition after trauma.
