Our Story

Justice for Vets was founded in 2010 to support the emergence of veterans treatment courts and assist communities with bringing together local, state, and federal resources to directly serve veterans involved in the justice system due to mental health disorders, trauma, and substance use.

In 2013, Justice for Vets launched the Veteran Mentor Corps to train volunteer veteran mentors and mentor coordinators serving in veterans treatment courts.
