Our Mission

Our mission is to build an America where every returning veteran can serve again as a citizen leader, and where together we honor the fallen by living their values through service. 

We accomplish our mission through our unique The Mission Continues programs.  These include our Fellowship, Veterans Tribute, and Warriors in Service programs. To learn more about each of these initiatives, visit our programs page.

Our Philosophy

We believe that the leadership skills and life experiences that our wounded and disabled veterans possess are

valuable and untapped assets.  While it is very important to tell our returning veterans "thank you" for their service, we believe that it is also important to tell them "we still need you".

The Mission Continues is built on the principles of strength and challenge:

1.) Strength: Our veterans possess an incredible strength that comes from their military service and from learning to live with and overcome a wound or disability.

2.) Not a Charity - a Challenge: The Mission Continues does not offer charity to our returning service members.  We offer a challenge for them to continue serving our country here at home.  This, in turn, strengthens our veterans and strengthens our communities.

By recognizing the strength of our veterans and challenging them to serve again in their communities, we hope to build a new generation of citizen leaders.

We also believe that the best way to honor our fallen and wounded service members is to live their beliefs through service.
