Sailors and Coast Guardsmen may self-refer to the program or be referred by family members, command leadership or medical providers.

"For the longest time, I was doing nothing. I would go to the gym and then go home and play video games and watch TV. Adaptive athletics has opened my eyes so much."

Navy Wounded Warrior provides enrollee families with a variety of support services to help make their jobs as caregivers more manageable.

"I look forward to the camaraderie and I am proud to represent my community and the Navy," said 2016 Warrior Games athlete.

Adaptive sports help wounded warriors build strength and endurance, while also drawing inspiration from their teammates.

   

Legal Affairs

Navy Wounded Warrior can connect wounded warriors and their families or caregivers with appropriate Navy Legal Services Command attorneys for advice and mentorship on a range of legal issues.

The Navy attorneys can explain and provide advice on issues related to:

  • VA and naval policies, procedures and benefits
  • Administration
  • Reserve affairs
  • Medical Evaluation Board/Physical Evaluation Board processes

Navy attorneys can also help family members of catastrophically wounded warriors determine if guardianship options should be considered.
