Empowering first responders, military, veterans, & their families through peer-led support, fostering resilience & connection
WWS is a non-profit organization led by peers with lived experience. WWS community includes first responders, military personnel, veterans, & their families.
We focus on living in wellness with diagnosed PTSD injury & OSI injury resulting from trauma sustained on the job. This also includes those living with CPTSD as a result of being a survivor of Military/Service Sexual Trauma.
WWS & our team also assist those who may be under presumptive care or in the acute stages of injury to navigate the stages of the roadmap to mental health on their healing journey if needed.
You are not alone in navigating the roadmap of living with PTSD injury.
WWS offers a safe space to participate in wellness activities in a community of peers with lived experience maintaining wellness with PTSD/OSI injury.
At WWS, we understand the stages of mental health injury & are here to help on your journey.
WWS supports active and retired members, including volunteer & auxiliary members, from various organizations listed below.
We provide a safe, supportive environment for first responders, military personnel, veterans, & their families living with PTSD/OSI injury.
We aim to help them regain balance and feel grounded through peer-led land based wellness programs & peer support groups.
We follow a “Do No Harm” policy during our programs, meaning we do not discuss the details of our trauma or topics like news, politics, or religion to ensure a safe environment for all participants, as WWS programs & groups are not therapist led.
WWS offers wellness programs designed to help individuals navigate the complexities of living in wellness with PTSD/OSI injury. These programs include:
WWS conduct peer support groups both in person & virtually. These groups are tailored to provide support and understanding from peers who have had similar experiences.
Participants of our in-person programs must be through the initial acute stages of their injury with their clinician due to the fact we are a non-therapist led/run facility.
Virtual programs & peer support groups are available for those still in acute stages, or are still under presumptive care legislation.
All first-time participants in our workshops & peer support groups must provide proof of service for liability & safety purposes, & do a gentle intake so we can get to know you. In this call we do NOT ask for details of your injury.
Our operations team & program facilitators are required to have a clean criminal background check, including a vulnerable sector check, as well as a level of required training as it pertains to the programs or groups they are facilitating.
If you are looking for additional supports to help you or a loved one living with PTSD/OSI injury, please contact WWS by email. Include what services or programs you think would be helpful & we will get back to you with additional external resources for you to explore.
All additional resources have been tried & are trusted by WWS community members & their families.
