Victory for Veterans, Inc. (VFV) Mission: To provide suicide prevention and reduction for veterans and first responders by healing invisible wounds through holistic modalities and providing year-round Warriors for Life Online Peer Support.

Vision: Where Hope, Support, and Healing come together

Victory for Veterans was launched in 2016 to reduce Veteran and First Responder suicide and mental health challenges following a diagnosis PTDS, Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), depression and substance use. The Veteran-led nonprofit organization serves their target population through Warriors for Life peer-to-peer support group and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). The cost-free Warriors for Life support group was developed by Col. (Ret.) Mikel Burroughs who launched the structured outreach to honor his late father-in-law who died by suicide in 2015, following his service as a Marine Sniper in the Vietnam War. The support group provides participants with a daily, safe outlet to receive and express big and small challenges among other like-minded leaders who can support and encourage peers.

​

in 2020, Victory for Veterans committed to the implementation of their first Life Readiness Center (LRC) where Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Chambers would be used to promote healing among Veterans and First Responders who suffer from PTSD, TBI, MST, and other Invisible Wounds.  Following the pandemic, the organization received funding to purchase and install two HBOT Chambers in their first RLC in Huntsville, TX. With certifications in place, the LRC began treating Veterans in Jan. 2023 with 70 participants benefiting in the first 4 months of operations. The cost-free HBOT sessions are proven to positively impact participants cognitively and symptomatically, and their depression and anxiety were reduced.

Restoring Hope among Veterans and Military, on life’s edge and without hope, is paramount in the organization's view.  VFV will focus on health through our Life Readiness Centers and our Warriors for Life (WFL) Online Peer Support.
