VHWF Education Impact Program works to create an understanding of the unique health and healthcare issues facing Veterans and their families. We align with visionary partners and work across the continuum to create “excellence” in healthcare. We create and deliver education and training for pre-professional healthcare students (i.e., physicians, nurses, PAs, NPs, pharmacists, dentists, social workers, case managers, psychologists, allied healthcare professionals, etc.), practicing healthcare professionals, community members, Veterans, and their families. We provide transformative resources for learners and educators at local, regional, and national levels to disseminate innovations which better train physicians to meet the needs of patients today and in the future.

Transitioning from warrior to Veteran can be challenging, particularly for those with injuries, illnesses or diseases connected to their service. The claims process can be confusing and complicated, but with the help of VHWF, it can be one that Veterans do not have to navigate alone. The VHWF’s VA Navigator Assistance Program (VA NAP) is a network of knowledgeable representatives established to assist Veterans and their families gain access to care.

The Veteran Medical Neighborhood Consortium (the "Neighborhood") is a space for Veterans and their families to locate businesses that are welcoming and supportive of Veterans as customers, clients, patients, guests, stakeholders, employees, or members. Many Veteran-focused organizations share statistics and information, but do not have resources to mitigate or solve challenges that Veterans and their families face. For organizations that provide a specific service, many are focused on the singular item and are not able to account for other aspects that also likely play a role in the health outcomes of Veterans and their families. VHWF serves as a hub for connection to services addressing all parts of life for health and wellness that is all-encompassing.
