The Place and Time Program is reserved for those military and civilian warriors and their families who have seen tough duty or have sustained physical, mental, or emotional injuries in the line of duty. Since the effects of warrior duty can last for decades, for a lifetime, the Place and Time Program is available to participants from any war, action, or domestic service that has had significant impact on their lives. The program is intended to provide "time out " from the stressors of life and work, to provide opportunity for rest, reflection, and healing in whatever ways seem useful.

Military
Combat veterans from all branches of the US defense forces, including the National Guard and Coast Guard, from all wars and actions are eligible to apply to Warrior's Way Foundation's "Place & Time Program."

Military personnel must present credible evidence of military service (a copy of the primary's DD-214 or Military ID)and their reason for requesting time at Warrior's Way. Family members of present or former military personnel are eligible for consideration even it the warrior member is not requesting. Copies of the primary's DD-214 or Military ID must be presented along with reasons for requesting time at Warrior's Way.

Family members of deceased or wounded warriors are eligible for consideration even if the warrior member is not requesting or unable to request. Copies of the primary's DD-214, Death Notification Letter, Military ID or other credible proof of difficult duty must accompany the application.

Allied warriors: If there are resources available (facilities, money, time), applications will be accepted under the above terms and conditions from combat veterans from our long standing allies in all wars, in particular those from Canada, Great Britain, and Australia.

Since Warrior's Way's Place and Time Program is intended to help those who have endured tough duty or suffered mental, emotional, and/or physical injury in the line of duty, and since our facilities and resources are limited, having served in the military in non-combat duty is not sufficient to qualify for the residency programs at Warrior's Way. However, all those who have served or are serving in the military are eligible for the Information & Opportunity Program whether service was in a combat or a support role.

Civilian Warriors
Civilian warriors--defined as law enforcement officers, firefighters, paramedics, EMTs, search and rescue, K9 search and rescue, combat and trauma medical personnel, and relief aid workers and their families--are eligible for participation in all of Warrior's Way Foundation's programs under provisions similar to those for military personnel.

Civilian warrior applicants must present verifiable proof of their current or previous employment in the relevant warrior profession (a letter from or the name of a supervisor who can verify professional activity) and information on their reason for requesting time at Warrior's Way.

Many civilian warriors are also former military personnel. Application should be made based on the most recent activities, with mention of military service as part of personal history unless events of military duty are the primary reason for requesting time at Warriors Way.

Civilian warriors disabled in the line of duty are eligible for consideration if they provide validation of their past employment, high stress activities, and warrior related needs and disability.

Family members of current, wounded, or deceased civilian warriors are eligible for residency consideration even if the warrior member is not requesting or unable to request. Verification of the primary's employment, disability, circumstances of death, or other condition, and the reason for wishing to come to Warrior's Way must be submitted with the application.

Heads of departments or units (Fire, Police, Emergency, SAR) may request blocks of time and space to be used solely for their employees. In such circumstances, the contracting department is responsible for scheduling its members in and out of the leased facility. Depending on amount of time requested, special rates may apply.

Other interested groups may request blocks of time and space to be used for a specified group within the warrior population. Such arrangements have to coordinated with the sponsoring group and The Foundation.

Pets are not permitted in the Warrior's Way Foundation residency units.

Members of the K9 core when accompanied by their human partners are considered warriors not pets. Seeing eye dogs are considered medical assistants.
