The Virtus Project
Where Faith Meets Science

Powered by Vasana and Guided by the Virtus Project™

The American Warrior Association is proud to partner with Vāsanā as the official technology partner for Warrior's Refuge and R3: Respond. Restore. Resolve., and as a research partner for the Virtus Project, where faith meets science in the pursuit of healing the invisible wounds of service.

Together, the AWA and Vāsanā are working to strengthen moral health, resilience, and long-term well-being among military service members, veterans, first responders, and their families. By combining the AWA's expertise in moral injury, peer-led healing, and faith-based resilience with Vāsanā's behavioral science platform, wellness tools, and technology, this partnership creates a bridge between program participation and lifelong growth.

Through personalized resources, assessments, and ongoing engagement, Warrior's Refuge alumni now have access to additional tools and support designed to help them stay connected to the practices, relationships, and purpose that foster lasting healing. At the same time, the partnership advances the Virtus Project's mission to better understand moral injury and identify the factors that contribute to resilience, recovery, and human flourishing.

Together, we are building a future where those who serve have access to the support, connection, and resources they need not simply to survive, but to thrive.
