Veteran-Informed Justice Starts with Education

Across the justice system, professionals are encountering service members, Veterans, and their family members whose experiences require informed and effective engagement. Whether you're a lawyer, paralegal, administrative staff, or policymaker, understanding military culture and the invisible wounds of service is essential.

Approximately 10% of the US population is military-connected.

This community includes service members, Veterans, military spouses, children, parents, caregivers and more.

Our mission at PsychArmor is to transform the way our nation engages with the military and Veteran community through the power of education and training.

This includes evidence-based education that helps legal professionals respond to the mental health and cultural needs of military-connected individuals.

Work with PsychArmor to better:

  • Recognize signs of PTSD, moral injury, and crisis

  • Understand the unique needs of transitioning from service, including financial instability and gaps in medical care

  • Respond using trauma-informed, culturally competent strategies

  • Strengthen trust between legal systems and Veteran communities
