What’s Adaptive Warrior?

 

Adaptive Warrior’s main purpose is to help those service members that have become disabled from accidents in post service, combat related service, or non-combat related service. This program aims to relieve the financial burden that may come with these injuries. The Stronger Warrior Foundation is dedicated to helping those Warriors in need by financially supporting adaptive living additions to homes, vehicles, and any other necessities that are needed. Each grant provided to our Warriors is up to $6,000 based on the severity of the situation and need. Learn more about the complete process by clicking below.

A Message From the Director

“This program is designed to reach injured veterans who need modifications for their homes or vehicles. Our goal is to help make a veteran’s living situation easier whether their injury was service related or not. Our program is unique because it aims to help those who may not be getting sufficient monetary assistance to modify their homes or vehicles from the VA. Please contact me if you have any questions about the Adaptive Warrior Program. ”

Zachary Osaer Director of Adaptive Warrior
