Circle of Trust at The Military Family Center
The Military Family Center has invited Warriors Journey Home (WJH) to provide a veteran’s Circle of Trust for confidential exchanges of stories about military service. This is a vet-to-vet program that Warriors Journey Home began in 2003 to provide a safe place for veterans coming home to talk about their experiences, challenges, and general understandings of life in the military, and coming home.
Meeting Day & Time
First Saturday of the month
10:00am to noon
The Circle of Trust is facilitated by a WJH veteran. We are not: Therapists. Counselors. Psychologists. Social Workers. We are veterans who have banded together to support one another by listening, telling our story, and discovering healing from the invisible injuries, while also discovering the wisdom and growth that is born from experience. The group meeting:
- Is small, no more than 10 persons. Additional groups will be added as needed.
- What is brought up in the group, stays in the group.
- Protective and safe. The facilitator and group members look out for one another.
- Veterans only. Veterans “speak a language” they understand. Part of coming home is feeling safe. Vets get ‘it’ when talking with other vets.
- No judgment. No criticism. No advice (unless requested). No politics. No religion.
- We recognize that each person is a soul, an embodied soul, and that we are in kinship with one another. WJH Circle of Trust is spiritual.
