I felt welcomed by Cas, Cassandra on my first time walking the alpacas and llamas. I learned a lot by these species and enjoyed my walk with wonderful group of humans and no humans. We walked towards Riparian Preserves then to Karl’s farmWhere we fed the cattle’s, pigs, goats and dogs. Then we walked back to their home and I enjoyed hanging out with the other farm animals: chickens, dogs, goats, sheep’s, pigs and more adorable animals.
So many great programs unfolding. There are different resources and events for every Veteran. Alpaca Therapy Walks, PAWSS, Tapping, and so much more. They are IN with all of the major local resources... if they don't offer it, it's all about the warm hand-off. Great org. New leadership, new events, and now... new workshops coming... So excited!!
The #1 Organization in Arizona that helps Veterans with PTS. There is no other organization that can compare to them. Operation Shockwave...YOU are THE BEST.
They will do anything and go anywhere for Veterans in crisis. All times of day or night they help people no matter what type of situation. I hope the program goes national they're incredible.

This non profit is reaching out to various groups of people throughout the valley of Phoenix to raise awareness of suicide within the veteran community. They arm people with tools and techniques to recognize suicidal tendencies and distress and to help prevent it. We could improve by possibly receiving the funding to diversify our methods of reaching out to the masses to reach and inform them about suicide.
They do amazing work with our veterans, by mentoring, assisting them with jobs, suicide prevention, and many other things.
Operation Shockwave does exceptional work in the community. Andrew provides personal experience to a difficult subject for most to discuss.
They are doing well in that they connect well with the whole community and are able to help get the message across that there are people out there who care and can assist alleviate the situation of being in a dark place. I think an improvement like most nonprofits is funding to help get the message farther.
OSW is speaking on a much needed topic that no one wants to touch - veteran suicide. The conversations are being approached with their help and if we can save one life...that is what OSW is all about. Reducing the vet suicide rate is their expertise.
Operation Shockwave is doing a fantastic job at bringing awareness to the veteran community and vets helping vets. They are growing and it will take time as
Andrew's passion shows through which serves his serves his audience in the most authentic way possible.
Operation shockwave is an outstanding nonprofit organization that I highly recommend to any of my fellow veterans who are going through a hard time they have the key elements to go ahead and progress our veterans to live a better life
Operation Shockwave is a much needed and valuable community resource to help Veterans and Military Families with mental health needs. I have been able to work directly with Andrew Jones on various projects and he is a true community asset. I am not aware of anything they can do to improve, as they do everything so well!
They are leading a grassroots movement to empower veterans to care for their brothers and sisters through educational events and trainings, as well as, peer mentorship to engage veterans forging through their own personal hardships and issues.
They are a non profit that trains other Veterans to mentor those In need. Also one on one is also available. The passion that Andrew and his team put into life changing programs for the Veteran community is top notch. Working with suicide prevention is one of the greatest needs, as it is estimated that at least 22 plus take there lives daily. Shockwave makes a huge difference to our community. I give them a 5 star rating.
This non profit is saving lives. They are consistent in their commitment, service, and delivery. In addition, they are always educating.
Operation Shockwave goes above and beyond to help those in need. With a gentleman like Andrew leading the way they are achieving far more than anybody could ever expect. They are helping people and saving lives. I have been touched by their work. And I look forward to all the amazing things they will achieve and people they will continue to help

They do a great job in supporting the veteran community with PTSD and TBI. They have saved lives and marriages.
I have personal knowledge of suicides that have been prevented due to the mentorship of these folks. They give struggling vets and their family the tools they need to overcome / manage PTSD. The workshops they do for the community help so many to understand what the vets are going through. These people literally save lives.
By Nature Marines are goal-driven and one of the tightest families in the world. Andrew and Operation Shockwave have taken care of the helpless, hopeless, injured, and their families and are relentless in their care. OS has taken care of my family and made life just that much better.
They have been an excellent resource and have provided numerous presentations that have been very well received.
The mentors are truly dedicated to their cause, sometimes sacrificing their own family time so that those in crisis will b able to continue to be with their families.
This non-profit organization saves lives and let's veterans and their families know someone cares and we still have a purpose. All volunteers are there for you and help in any way they can.
They are doing great with helping struggling veterans with immediate help. Along with long term by helping them reintegrate into the civilian life.
