Executive Summary
At Boulder Crest Foundation, we know that profound strength and wisdom can emerge from pain and struggle. This is the essence of Posttraumatic Growth (PTG) and the foundation of our Warrior PATHH program. Over the past decade, Warrior PATHH has grown into a nationwide movement that enables our nation’s heroes to transform their struggles into a life of meaning, service, and purpose.
2025 marked a year of significant expansion and deepened impact. We were proud to formally open Boulder Crest Texas, establishing a permanent home for our Mobile Training Teams, and increasing our capacity to serve those in need. This new campus, alongside our primary locations and our partners, allowed us to reach more individuals than ever before.
We are deeply honored to be a part of the Avalon Action Alliance. Alongside our partners — GratitudeAmerica, Camp Southern Ground, Big Red Barn Retreat, Travis Mills Foundation, Permission to Start Dreaming Foundation, and Sheep Dog Impact Assistance — we are championing a new way forward for our veteran and first responder communities. In 2025, this alliance delivered more than 156 programs to 1,213 members of the military, veteran, and first responder communities. By working together, we have strengthened our collective ability to bring life-changing support to those who need it most.
The need for this work remains urgent. Suicide rates among actively serving military members, veterans, and first responders remain alarmingly high. Far too many navigate the hidden wounds of service in silence, often because traditional approaches fall short of addressing their unique needs. At Warrior PATHH, we offer an alternative — a pathway rooted in hope, strength, and the evidence-based science of Posttraumatic Growth.
The results of this movement speak volumes. In 2025, Warrior PATHH participants experienced a 58% reduction in symptoms of posttraumatic stress, along with significant decreases in depression and anxiety. Posttraumatic Growth outcomes increased by 65%, demonstrating the sustained, transformative power of this program. Beyond the numbers, our graduates report a renewed sense of purpose and a deeper commitment to their families and communities. They join a growing network of alumni who embody the principles of PTG in their everyday lives.
The work of the Avalon Action Alliance’s Warrior PATHH network is reshaping the narrative around mental health. This year, we continued to elevate the conversation, emphasizing that struggle has value and that growth is possible for everyone. Looking ahead, we remain committed to our mission of helping America’s heroes live fulfilling lives after trauma. We believe that their best days are not behind them but ahead of them, filled with strength, purpose, and the ability to serve others.
Join us in making this vision a reality. Together, we can transform struggle into strength and create a future filled with possibility.
