Campaigns

Operation Recovery: Stop the Deployment of Traumatized Troops focuses on ending the practice of deploying service members suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), and Military Sexual Trauma (MST). The campaign supports service members pursuing their right to heal from trauma caused by military service and puts pressure base commanders and public officials to overturn the policies that allow commanding officers to supersede the advice of medical professionals. Service members who are not physically or mentally healthy should not be forced to deploy or continue service.

Winter Soldier: More than 200 U.S. military veterans and active duty soldiers, as well as Iraqi and Afghani civilians, provided accounts of their experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan. The event was inspired by the Winter Soldier Investigation of 1971.
