Operation Charlie Bravo Preventing su***de and homelessness amongst Veterans suffering from PTSD / TBI / and/or depression.
(338)

Operation Charlie Bravo is committed to helping Veterans find life-changing, impactful solutions to prevent su***de and homelessness at no cost to veterans. We believe that veteran and military su***de prevention must be a national priority due to the extremely high numbers of veterans committing su***de. The mission of OCB is to foster dignity as we re-introduce self-worth to our veterans and mil

itary personnel who have been physically, mentally, and emotionally damaged by the realities of military service. Through our efforts, we hope to give new life to the men and women who have served our country by reducing the su***de rate and preventing homelessness for our warriors. At OCB, life begins anew when we understand and accept these men and women as they are. We assist them to find and develop their gifts and talents as they embrace and contribute to one another and society. We have developed regional programs targeted toward veterans and military personnel. Our mission is accomplished through creative near-peer solution-driven activities and other programs that facilitate positive lifestyle changes and growth. Several tailored techniques are utilized to formulate the best outcome per individual. First, assessment tools are used to evaluate the veteran’s overall happiness. The “Plan – Attack – Repeat” method is then used. “Plan” consists of formulating what the veteran would realistically like to accomplish and a wish list of goals for the future. “Attack” involves putting their plan into action with shared resources, community assistance and organizational support from OCB. “Repeat” is a promise to never give up and to return to the planning phase to redevelop their plan when they have failures or setbacks. This process improves coping skills, introduces a refuge for fellowship with other veterans, and encourages the use of ones’ gifts and talents to inspire and motivate a new, positive direction in their lives. By participating in this outlet, OCB yields proud and productive patriots as a result of their increased overall happiness which allows them to once again contribute to our community. Process

We provide a unique facility that functions as a “veteran playland” for fostering creative growth in a near-peer solution-driven environment through a variety of hands-on distractive therapies for day-to-day problem solving. Using the “Plan – Attack – Repeat” method, goals are set, re-igniting purpose and advancing a sense of accomplishment while discovering new talents and learning new skill sets. Key card access allows veterans to have 24/7 access to the facility. Specific group programs are available on Thursday and Friday nights and all day on Sundays. By partnering with other local resources, organizations, and businesses, we can work together to assist with the varying needs of veterans in our community.
