What Our Program Participants Are Saying

“I can not even put into words how beautiful this program is. There are so many services and benevolent organizations for active duty SEALs. When my husband retired, I had an overwhelming sadness about being done with support. When I learned about the STEPS Foundation and joined this cohort, I felt cared for, supported, and incredibly grateful to still be receiving help during this transition. Besides the professionals that we signed up to work with regularly, we also had access to join talks with experts in their fields- yoga/mediation, cooking/meal prep, natural medicine, etc…. I LOVED being able to jump into these calls also!”

“The STEPS Foundation has given me new skills to practice and use daily. I also am so thankful to be a part of an organization that cares about the whole military family! The support has been so incredible. I honestly cannot say enough of the help STEPS Foundation has given to me. It has been the thing that has single-handedly kept me afloat. The support is world class. I’ve done a ton of therapy and self-healing practices in the past, but in the short amount of time I’ve been in the cohort class, I’ve realized there are levels of healing stress and trauma that need to be accessed and are available for real lasting healing. It couldn’t have come at a better time. I will forever be grateful and don’t want it to end. I will tell every TEAM wife I know to sign up. We all need it!”

The STEPS program provided me with the tools to help me focus on me. They provided mental health and physical health through various programs. I went through an extensive appointment, looking at hormone imbalance and overall labs. This was like gold. I have never had a provider that spent the time to go over all the labs and provide suggestions and supplements to bring these values into range. With 16 military moves, it was hard to have continuity in care let alone a whole body lab check in one appointment. I also was seeing a nutritionist which help me with my diet and figuring out some of my food sensitivities. I am eating better, feeling better and have lost weight which is not easy for a post menopausal woman.
