We are Avalon Action Alliance

Avalon Action Alliance is the post-trauma wellness non-profit helping veterans, first responders and their families gain control over issues related to mental wellness and brain health.

“Avalon” reflects the healing properties of the mythical island of Avalon and our mission of post-trauma wellness. We pair this healing mindset with “Action Alliance” to indicate our work combatting invisible wounds on systemic and personal levels, and the deeply human connection required on both fronts.

Our Integrative Approach

TO POST-TRAUMA WELLNESS

Substance Addiction and Dependency

Post-traumatic 

Stress & Depression

Traumatic Brain Injury & Related Psychological Symptoms

Avalon’s unique value is rooted in the reality that the symptoms and signs of these invisible wounds are interrelated and difficult to diagnose. We provide a single point of contact and one integrative assessment for the symptoms of TBI and PTSD to identify and point veterans and first responders to the most effective clinical or non-clinical pathways they need.

WHAT OUR VETERANS ARE SAYING:

Warrior PATHH created the environment and provided the practices necessary to let go of the pain I have held for 29 years.

P.M., U.S. Air Force Veteran

MIBH brings a positive and motivating process where the Veteran can understand themselves wholly without judgement from others.

P.J., U.S. Army Veteran

My life has changed. I have new coping mechanisms to help with my past trauma and physical pain. I feel so much better.

It’s an urgent tragedy that so many of our nation’s defenders are battling invisible wounds without proper care. We’re driving hard to bring them transformational treatments and training befitting their service, strength and lifelong potential.

Winning the Battle Within

Since 2001, about 1 of every 3 veterans have returned home from war with invisible wounds: symptoms of PTSD and traumatic brain injury. And 6,146 veterans die by suicide annually.
