SUPPORTING COMBAT VETERANS & FIRST RESPONDERS
Warriors Choice Foundation® (WCF®) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing access for Combat Veterans and First Responders with personalized, holistic care for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), mental health challenges, and catastrophic injuries. We bridge the gap in traditional healthcare with modern, nontraditional treatments tailored to each individual.
Our mission is bigger than any one program: proven, multi-faceted treatment options for those who have served, and a renewed path to physical and mental health. The foundation of that mission is two connected programs: the seven-week WCF Resiliency Program, built on the Army’s Master Resilience Training model, and fully task-trained service dogs from our Focused Cognitive K9 Resiliency™ (FCKR) program. They work as one journey: every service dog candidate completes the Resiliency Program first, so every placement begins from a measured baseline.
And this is where we’re headed: proof, not promises. Six validated instruments at baseline, completion, and 3, 6, 12, and 24 months, plus quarterly assessments for the working life of every service dog team. Our programs are always $0 to the veterans and first responders we serve, and every dollar is tracked to outcomes we can show.

Stronger Together
Education & Community
Healing doesn’t happen alone. We mentor youth programs, host community events like Meals That Matter and Fairways to Freedom, and help veterans navigate their education benefits. This year alone we have put food on the table for close to 2,200 families. Community is part of the therapy.

MEET OUR NEWEST FUTURE SERVICE DOGS
Puppies with a powerful purpose:
Every puppy here is a future WCF service dog: a purpose-bred Belgian Malinois raised through our in-house breeding and development program from their very first days. Long before formal FCKR task-training begins, our team builds the socialization, confidence, and structure that carry a dog all the way to placement, supporting veterans and first responders with independence, safety, and companionship for years to come.

WCF® delivers on its mission through a focused set of support methods: veteran service dogs, integrated mental health services, holistic and nontraditional therapies, and education-based community engagement. Each approach is designed to empower Combat Veterans and First Responders with healing that is personalized, accessible, and rooted in connection.
At the center sits the seven-week WCF Resiliency Program, built on the Army’s Master Resilience Training model and delivered live in small, instructor-led cohorts. It is the foundation every participant begins with, and the gateway to our Service Dog Program, where purpose-bred Belgian Malinois are raised and task-trained in-house through our FCKR methodology.
What makes these methods different is that we measure them. Every participant completes six validated psychological instruments plus a work-performance measure at baseline, at completion, and at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months, and service dog teams continue with full quarterly assessments for the working life of the dog. That longitudinal record guides each individual’s care, shows us what truly works, and proves our impact in numbers rather than anecdotes.
Every method is provided at $0 to the veterans and first responders we serve. Together they restore dignity, build resilience, and create a measured path toward long-term wellness.
