In 2016, a combat medic came on a QMissions trip carrying something she had been carrying since Iraq.
Today, she runs this organization.
Meet Jessica Burgans, Executive Director of QMissions,
Jessica served on the front lines in Iraq as an Army combat medic. She came home with severe PTSD and struggled for years before she found her way through it. That journey changed her direction entirely. She went back to school, earned her master's in clinical mental health counseling, and did her clinical training at a military family clinic where every single client was a post-9/11 veteran, active duty, or a military family member.
She has spent nearly 20 years mentoring at-risk youth. She has served as a deacon for eight. She runs a trauma-focused counseling practice.
And ten years after she served with us for the first time, she is the one leading us forward.
We did not hire a résumé. We hired proof.
Welcome, Jessica.
