The Project New Day Program: What, Who, Why, and How

What are we doing?
We have created a structured, life-improvement program designed to reduce suffering and prevent loss of life. With demonstrated outcomes, we are expanding access to reach thousands of veterans at no cost to them.

Who are we serving?
We currently serve combat veterans navigating the invisible wounds of service. Over time, our model may expand to support others affected by trauma.

Why are we helping?
Because effective support should be practical, respectful, and accessible. Helping others grow is also a vital part of human well-being.

How do we deliver the program?
Through a 12-week coaching program combined with weekly or biweekly Zoom-based community sessions. Our model has been studied and refined, and we partner with organizations to make all training materials, guidelines, and courses widely accessible.
