Grant Mapping & Writing
VetREC connects organizations with the right funders and crafts winning proposals. For Life Transition Meditation Center, we’ve secured support from multiple foundations, including the McCune Foundation and Overwatch Alliance, helping sustain Veteran-centered meditation retreats year after year.
Case Studies
Breaking Barriers: Veteran Recruitment Case Study
Recruiting Veterans into research is often called “impossible.” Most studies struggle with under-enrollment because of issues like logistics, distrust, and research fatigue.
At VetREC, we take a different approach: doing research with Veterans, not on them. In partnership with Dr. William Howe at Texas Tech, we launched the Breaking Barriers Project to explore why some VA-eligible Veterans choose not to use VA services.
The result? We filled roundtable spots in less than 24 hours by involving Veterans in shaping the study from the start.
