U.S. Army Veteran Jay Leitner’s second deployment introduced him to the harsh realities of war and combat. His experiences led him to a point which he describes as he was “drifting along.” He stopped taking care of himself, was taking multiple medications and drinking heavily to cope. He wasn’t looking forward to being around anymore, but at that low point, he sought help. After receiving a complete analysis of his brain and body and an individualized pipeline of care through our Health & Wellness Program, Jay finally felt improvement in every area of his life. With your support, more Veterans like Jay will get the tools and treatment they need and so deserve.

Impacted by the events of 9/11, Marc Aldrich proudly joined the U.S. Marine Corps as a Flight Mechanic after high school. His time spent as a Flight Mechanic quickly introduced him to the world of combat, leaving him little time to process the trauma and grief that came along with it. After separating from service, his sleep and physical health took a turn for the worse, leading a friend to suggest that he reach out to Boot Campaign for help. Marc began a personalized program to treat his specific symptoms and shares how he has overcame his hidden wounds and became a healthier person, better father and committed employee as a result. With your support, more Veterans like Marc will get the tools and treatment they need and so deserve.

For 33 years, Tim Travis worked as a Texas police officer and a U.S. Army Reservist. Following 9/11, Tim was activated six times, deploying to both Iraq and Afghanistan. Over the course of his service, Tim sustained a traumatic brain injury, or TBI, and after each deployment, his symptoms intensified – chronic memory loss, short tempered and more. We’re so grateful for veterans like Tim who raised their right hand to protect and serve, but also put in the work necessary so that his past experiences don’t define him. Boot Campaign exists to provide individualized treatment to veterans struggling to overcome hidden wounds of war, such as brain injury, posttraumatic stress disorder, chronic pain, self-medication and insomnia.
