Trauma and Recovery Program (T.R.P.)

PARENTS FOR PEACE

Parents For Peace (P4P) is a 501 (c) 3 comprised of relatives of extremists, former extremists, survivors and public health experts on extremism. P4P provides programs for early intervention, prevention and de-radicalization for any individual that shows signs of hate or extremism, through youth-resilence and rehabilitation programs, as well as a national, non-governmental helpline.

THE MILITARY

Through a very necessary process soldiers are desensitized and radicalized in order to effectively complete missions of combat. While undergoing training, soldiers experience complex mental, emotional, and visual desensitization tactics which allows them to perform effectively under high stress and high tempo situations. Unfortunately, these practices and habits do not go away when a soldier returns from combat leaving said high-stress environments. Additionally, there are little to no programs to help address the effects of radicalization. Soldiers often return home under extreme duress, mentally and emotionally, opening the door for grooming into violent extremism i.e. Proud Boys, 3 percenters, Oath Keepers, ISIS sympathizers, and Quanon to name a few - where membership of these groups comprises a majority of veterans and current service members. These groups are becoming more violent under the belief that they are defending the constitution from an enemy force. We owe it to our service members, who selflessly and diligently defend the United States of America, to provide a program to resensitize and deradicalize our soldiers and sailors once they return home from their mission abroad.

T.R.P

Our goal is to deliver this program to readiness staff and chaplains across the military. This tool provides their soldiers the necessary emotional and mental gear allowing them to reintegrate to make a safe and healthy transition to civilian and garrison life. Through unique facilitation by a U.S. Army combat veteran and former extremist who has in-depth and intimate knowledge as to how soldiers are groomed and recruited into radical ideologies and extremist movements and groups, will provide a program with a moral cognizant approach to effectively combat this amongst your ranks. Knowledge is power.
