ABOUT OUR HEALTH PILLAR

Working in Naval Special Warfare takes a significant toll on members' bodies and minds, and the Navy SEAL Foundation is dedicated to providing essential care for their physical, mental, and emotional healing. From funding advanced treatments for combat-related injuries to providing access to world-class mental health care, we help warriors and their families reclaim functionality when it’s degraded or lost. Whether supporting recovery from critical injuries, addressing the cognitive effects of sustained combat, or helping a family cope with the toll of service, we ensure no one has to fight their battles alone. A healthy force begins with healthy individuals, and we stand ready to support their well-being every step of the way.

Thank you so much for this opportunity... I have learned a ton from the different modalities and think that I have grown during this program. I would and have recommended this to a ton of friends both on active duty and retired. One of the more important aspects of this program was the NSF briefs which included videos and a venue to talk about different concerns within the community whether being mental health or retirement.

And I'm convinced that we are able to take extra risks and efforts. We mitigate risk as much as we can but all of our guys are comfortable knowing that they have the support of another family with the Navy SEAL Foundation behind them that allows them to be comfortable. Because if they get injured, they know that there are other resources there.
