When I researched them to tag them into some projects we were coordinating here it was hard to become part of them or vice versa. I also found out their pay out to take in ratio is meager. The vets I know that use it say the trips they organize are great but lack in support when on the retreat.

I help most returning soldiers and returning veterans through LinkedIn and other organizations that are NON-Profits, and Profit that can help with housing and education and get veterans back to as full employment as possible with whatever their skill level and possible injuries are. That being said; I got a request from WWP CEO to Connect last year to help spread the word. So he left his number and after a great deal of more thought and research I called him back.
I explained the following: I know that the meadia can be hard, no NON-PROFITS, but 20% and $100K parties for corporations are okay sometimes, but not for this type of organization when you are helping soldiers and veterans that sometimes homeliness, on drugs because of no fault of their own, and mental health issues. And the biggest of all, the paperwork just lost in the system or the staff just seem not to care within the REGIONAL OFFICE, and we need ORGANIZED GROUPS that can SUPPORT us, or go out of business and he agreed. So at this time among others, I am starting to take courses to learn what it takes to be on a board.

Jack I dont have anything bad to say about them. They have treated me pretty good I guess. However, I have heard several severely injured vets say they did nothing for them. I have not heard from them in a while I hope all that was corrected.
I have personally benefited more from 9-line, the Special Operations version of WWP. They have helped me a good bit. Early in my recovery days I had a guy assigned to my case, he was a Ranger wounded in action in Mogadishu. They got me into several programs. They are heroes, what I personally experienced with WWP is pretty good. However, I have heard lots of not so good things as well.
