Our mission is to end the veteran suicide epidemic by providing resources, research, and advocacy for U.S. military veterans seeking psychedelic-assisted therapies for traumatic brain injury (TBI), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), addiction, and other service-related conditions.
We envision a world where every veteran has access to the most effective, evidence-based care to heal from the mental and physical wounds of war.
VETS was born from a deeply personal journey marked by discovery and an unyielding commitment to healing. Founded in 2019 by Amber and Marcus Capone, VETS emerged from their quest to find effective treatment for Marcus’ traumatic brain injury (TBI) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following his 13 years of military service as a U.S. Navy SEAL.
When conventional treatments failed, they discovered the powerful potential of psychedelic-assisted therapy. This breakthrough not only transformed Marcus’ life, it also ignited a mission to extend this hope to other veterans facing similar challenges.
