The AWP Network was created in 2018 based on a need identified through our Community Integration program. Through our Community Integration program evaluation tools and collection of meaningful data, America’s Warrior Partnership (AWP) was able to analyze veteran needs at the local level and the gaps that existed to meet those needs.

Transportation, short-term financial assistance, housing, and assistance with VA claims were some of the most pressing needs that community-based programs needed help addressing. When resources did not exist or had been exhausted at the local level, communities needed a place to turn to for support. Thus, The AWP Network was created to help bridge the gap between national resources and local communities.
