I reached out to the Wounded Warrior Project to ask for assistance with my initial claim for VA Disability Compensation and Benefits. My assigned Veteran’s Service Officer was Mr. Alshi Williams, Senior National Service Officer with the Atlanta Field Office. He did a superb job handling my claim. The Department of Veterans Affairs presented me with many challenges with unreasonable delays. With Alshi’s support and guidance, I was able to finally get my initial rating and get the benefits I earned after serving 32 years in the United States Navy. I suffer from very serious, service-connected medical conditions, and time was of the essence in getting my claim moved forward to ultimately a successful resolution. Not only did he help me with my claim, but during times of anxiety and desperation, he provided much-needed mental health support, coaching, and mentoring throughout the process. Without Alshi’s help, I don’t think I would have been able to get my claim processed to completion. Quite frankly, I would likely have passed before my claim was completely processed, leaving my family without benefits they deserve. I am forever thankful for the support provided by Alshi Williams and the Wounded Warrior Project.

The Wounded Warrior Project changed my life. I struggled transitioning to civilian life after over a decade in the military and numerous deployments. I went to the VA and they helped but nothing like the WWP. I went on a Project Odyssey and was reluctant at first. What I found was caring people who all had personal interest in helping veteran get better and function in post military society. Participating in events and talking to other vets made me feel like I wasn’t alone in my feelings and together we can thrive. They were always about moving forward and how to function the way we were. Not to dig up the past and commiserate. I know some people have had bad experiences and I can not speak for them but just myself. I say the WWP is a great foundation and has made a huge positive impact on my life. The people I worked with are caring and engaged and I will always feel a great deal of gratitude to them.
