Proactive Mental Health Training For Military Personnel and Veterans
Join over 74,000 first responders who've built stronger mental health with BOS.
50% of Military Personnel and Veterans suffer from at least 1 mental health condition, with up to 30% meeting the criteria for two or more psychiatric conditions.
Military service exposes personnel to prolonged stress, life-threatening situations, and trauma that can be progressive rather than isolated. The transition out of service adds a further layer, stripping away community, identity, and purpose all at once. If you or another servicemember is experiencing any of the following issues, BOS can help:
PTSD
Depression & anxiety
Military Sexual Trauma
Substance use & alcohol dependency
Moral Injury and Identity Loss
Decrease the Effects of Operational Stress for Military Personnel
BOS teaches military personnel and veterans practical, evidence-based tools to recognize and manage the psychological weight of service before it compounds into something harder to treat.
Address Operational Stress Before It Becomes PTSD
Learn to address early warning signs of operational stress and apply coping skills that work in real firefighting conditions, including shift work, sleep disruption, and high-intensity calls.
