The challenge of transitioning to civilian life can be a daunting or even overwhelming experience for many veterans. This cultural, social, and emotional process of navigating this change and discovering renewed purpose can take a tragic toll when proper support is not available or accessible. Often due to the inability to envision a path forward, our veterans are disproportionately represented among those challenged with anxiety, depression, homelessness, alcoholism, divorce, and, most notably, suicide.

Successful transition into stable, fulfilling civilian careers has proven critical in establishing healthy futures. The Wyakin Foundation illuminates this path and then walks it with each Veteran in the program. Our success rate in leading veterans to fulfilling careers is nearly double the national average. The Wyakin Foundation, one of the most comprehensive veteran programs nationwide, serves a significantly underserved population.

Choose Your Path is what we offer at the Wyakin Foundation. Through our six tenets (Mentoring, Networking, Educational Grants, Community Impact, Professional Development, and Wyakin for life, we have three paths to success for our veterans to utilize. 1. Classic Wyakin program focusing on education. 2. Wyakin Works program with a focus on vocational trade careers. 3. Wyakin Wheels program helping veterans get their CDLs.
