Wounded Warriors Recognized at Tonight's Game

The University of Miami will recognize Wounded Warriors during the first half of tonight’s men’s basketball game against Georgia Southern. 

Over 48,000 service members have been physically wounded during the current military conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Hundreds of thousands more are estimated to be recovering from invisible wounds of war, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), major depression, and traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to honor and empower these Wounded Warriors and make this the most successful, well-adjusted generation of veterans in our nation’s history.

Thousands of Wounded Warrior Project Alumni and caregivers receive support each year through WWP programs that are uniquely structured to nurture the mind and body, and encourage economic empowerment and engagement.

Whether through Family Support Retreats, combat stress programs or career and education opportunities, these services aim to ease the burdens of the wounded and their families, aid in the recovery process and smooth their transition back into civilian life.

If you or someone you know is a warrior and could benefit from camaraderie with others who understand such experiences or need support throughout the process of physical and mental recovery, please visit woundedwarriorproject.org or call 877-TEAM-WWP.
