Welcome to H.O.O.A.H. WI, a dedicated support network for veterans, service members, and their families in need of guidance and resources. Our mission is to eliminate veteran suicide by connecting those who served with our innovative programs, essential resources, empowering support, and a community that understands.
Here, you’ll find access to mental health support, peer mentorship, family services, and wellness programs, a designed to provide a lifeline when it’s needed most. At H.O.O.A.H. WI we believe no veteran or servicemember should face life’s challenges alone. Whether your seeking support for yourself of a loved one, we’re here to help you navigate the journey.
The programs page gives additional information of each of the opportunities available at no cost. If you are unsure of where to start, please give us a call.
We believe in the power of peer support and camaraderie. In early spring 2025, we will roll out our Peer Support Program, which focuses on creating various events and activities and partnering with other organizations to share more opportunities to connect.
Our events page shares events hosted by H.O.O.A.H. WI, our partners, community organizations and resource groups. These events will range from retreats and educational opportunities, fundraisers and community gatherings, to project nights and peer support events.
If you would like to share an event you have going on or reach out about introducing a new program, please email Chelsea Kocken at ckocken@hooahwi.org
