Outreach


Supporting the well-being of our local military, veterans & first responders — one partnership at a time.

We work together to bring our free programs to your people.

Outreach at Guardian Revival is focused, strategic, and personal. Our goal is to ensure that our guardians know they are never alone — and help them access our programs & events.

We connect with departments and agencies throughout the Hudson Valley — including Orange, Dutchess, Putnam & Westchester counties — to build partnerships that give guardians and their families the support they need.

Whether you're a wellness coordinator, department head, or advocate within your agency, our Outreach team is here to help you bring Guardian Revival's impact to your people — and make sure it lasts.

Become a Wellness Partner

We work directly with departments, commands, and organizations to build lasting, meaningful relationships — formalized through our Wellness Partner Program.

Wellness Partners designate internal Wellness Leaders — individuals who help drive culture change, promote participation, and ensure guardians are using the resources we offer.

We partner with organizations across the guardian community, including Police & Sheriff’s Departments, Fire & Rescue, EMS & Dispatchers, Veterans Affairs & VFW Posts, Military Installations, Corrections, and Federal Agencies. If your team serves — we’re here to serve you.
