1. MentorshipThe CCRP introduces peer mentors early on in the recovery process of the Wounded Warrior and his/her family. Peer mentors are uniquely qualified to discuss the physical, emotional, and psychological challenges and can provide guidance, feedback, and encouragement to the newly wounded, injured, and ill Wounded Warriors and their families.

2. WellnessWellness activities may include anything from participation in adaptive downhill skiing to complementary care physical therapy such as deep tissue muscle manipulation. Additionally focused on sustaining the mental wellbeing of the caregiver spouse or family members to ensure that they are afforded relief from the intense responsibilities associated with caring for a wounded or seriously ill loved one. All wellness activity requests are evaluated and approved on a case-by-case basis.

3. Community OutreachFor Wounded Warriors who are medically retiring and transitioning out of the military the

CCRP helps ensure a smooth transition by providing reintegration packets, which contain local information tailored to the individual’s needs. In addition, the CCRP reaches out to community and business leaders to gain local support for the Wounded Warrior and his/her family.


4. Resource NetworksThe CCRP maintains and continually adds to a database of resources for the Wounded Warrior, including both government and civilian employers as well as support organizations.

5. Operational Health Advanced Training Program (OHAT)For Wounded Warriors wanting to return to duty and seeking to achieve a military operational level of health the CCRP under the direction of the USSOCOM Care Coalition assists Wounded Warriors by enrolling them in Individual Military/Tactical Performance Training Program, an intensive rehabilitation program at the Andrews Institute. The CCRP covers transportation and lodging for the Wounded Warrior during his/her stay. In addition, CCRP covers transportation, lodging, and per diem for family members or other support individuals for periodic visits.

6. AdvocacyThe CCRP assists Wounded Warriors with resolution of issues related to health care, benefits, pay, entitlements, and medical and physical evaluation boards by working in collaboration with the Department of Defense, Veterans Affairs, and non-governmental organizations to provide maximum benefits to the Wounded Warrior.


Care Coalition Advocates and LNOs work very closely with CCRP Advocates.

Care Coalition LNOs support wounded warriors and family members during the acute stage of injury.

CCRP Advocates are introduced in cases where a prolonged hospitalization and rehabilitation is expected; CCRP Advocates maintain oversight until the wounded warrior has either returned to duty or transitioned successfully into civilian life.

Care Coalition Advocates are assigned upon wounded warrior’s admission and continue to support the wounded warrior and his/her family indefinitely.
