As a project of Community Partners, the Mindful Veteran Project is an all-volunteer nonprofit organization serving the military-connected-population in Southern California. Our mission is to guide veterans in an orientation to and simple, secular practices of mindfulness, empowering them to cultivate their inner strengths, support their own wellbeing, participate in their own healing process, explore new possibilities, and enjoy the highest possible quality of life – to Be Free, Be Well, and Be Whole in their daily lives.
Beyond the core of our mindfulness workshops, our programs connect veterans (as well as their family members, service/care providers, and the support community) in endless creative ways to resources and possibilities that dramatically ease the suffering and despair that drive over 22 veterans in this country to take their own lives every day. We do more than support surviving, helping veterans to thrive and lead rich, fulfilling lives.
