THE MISSION OF TAPS

TAPS is a national nonprofit organization providing compassionate care and comprehensive resources for all those grieving the death of a military or veteran loved one.

Since 1994, TAPS has provided comfort and hope 24/7 through a national peer support network and connection to grief resources, all at no cost to surviving families and loved ones.

TAPS provides a variety of programs to survivors nationally and worldwide. Our National Military Survivor Seminar and Good Grief Camp has been held annually in Washington, D.C., over Memorial Day weekend since 1994. TAPS also conducts regional survivor seminars for adults and youth programs at locations across the country, as well as retreats and expeditions around the world. Staff can get you connected to counseling in your community and help navigate benefits and resources.

If you are grieving the loss of a fallen service member, or if you know someone who can use our support, the TAPS 24/7 National Military Survivor Helpline is always available toll-free with loving support and resources at 800-959-TAPS (8277).

If you are here because our mission to care for the families of America’s fallen heroes speaks to you as well, we welcome you to connect with us about giving, volunteering, professional engagement or careers.

TAPS is a national nonprofit 501(c)3 Veterans Service Organization and is not part of, or endorsed by, the Department of Defense.

OUR WORK

In 2022, we connected with 8,849 newly bereaved loved ones, adding to the nearly 100,000 military survivors currently receiving support from TAPS. That was an average of 24 new survivors - every day. TAPS provides an array of programs, comfort, and resources for the families of the fallen. More than 11,570 survivors attended a TAPS event. TAPS answered over 25,623 calls, resolved over 6,397 casework challenges, secured over $3.9 million dollars in retroactive benefits for survivors and connected military survivors with over $215 million dollars in education benefits. We shared our experience and expertise, with over 6,300 individuals attending training sessions on grief, trauma, and suicide postvention. Learn more by downloading the impact reports below.

STANDING WITH YOU

At TAPS, we are here to support you along every step of your grief journey.

As part of the TAPS Family, we offer you the absolute best in survivor support, advocacy and casework assistance. Whether it's one of the members of our Helpline team talking with you on a sleepless night, a member of our Casework Team helping you sort through the stressful decisions to be made and paperwork following the death of a loved one, or whether it's walking down the corridors of Congress, advocating for policy and budget changes on behalf of survivors, our team is always standing with you and for you.

Learn more below about the ways we can help you connect with advocates, subject matter experts, peer professionals, community counseling, trusted partners and much more.

TAPS PROGRAMS: A PLACE OF COMPANIONSHIP

Every TAPS program is designed to help you feel companioned as you grieve, supported as you rebuild and united with other survivors as we choose to hope. We gather at seminars or online for practical advice, sharing groups and to connect with others like us. Our young survivors grieve together, play together and learn to laugh again at Good Grief Camp. We come together in our local communities with other survivors at care groups or TAPS Togethers activities. We find opportunities to create healthy habits, seek hope and connect with nature at our Women's Empowerment and Men's Programming events. And, we rediscover traditions and memories through our Sports & Entertainment events.

Through a wide variety of programming, TAPS helps survivors create rich lives despite loss, knowing we carry our loved ones with us - knowing that Love Lives On.

Address : Online Resource: https://www.consumerfinance.gov/consumer-tools/.

Brief Description Of Services :

We're the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), a U.S. government agency that makes sure banks, lenders, and other financial companies treat you fairly.

Learn how the CFPB can help you

We aim to make consumer financial markets work for consumers, responsible providers, and the economy as a whole. We protect consumers from unfair, deceptive, or abusive practices and take action against companies that break the law. We arm people with the information, steps, and tools that they need to make smart financial decisions.

In a market that works, the prices, risks, and terms of the deal are clear upfront so that consumers can understand their options and comparison shop. Companies all play by the same consumer protection rules and compete fairly on providing quality and service. To achieve this vision, the CFPB works to:

Empower

We create tools, answer common questions, and provide tips that help consumers navigate their financial choices and shop for the deal that works best for them.

Enforce

We take action against predatory companies and practices that violate the law and have already returned billions of dollars to harmed consumers.

Educate

We encourage financial education and capability from childhood through retirement, publish research, and educate financial companies about their responsibilities.

Our core functions

The CFPB was created to provide a single point of accountability for enforcing federal consumer financial laws and protecting consumers in the financial marketplace. Before, that responsibility was divided among several agencies. Today, it’s our primary focus.

Our work includes:

Rooting out unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices by writing rules, supervising companies, and enforcing the law
Enforcing laws that outlaw discrimination in consumer finance
Taking consumer complaints
Enhancing financial education
Researching the consumer experience of using financial products
Monitoring financial markets for new risks to consumers

Mission Statement

To provide addiction treatment of high quality and moderate price, across the spectrum of severity of illness and levels of care; and given Wyoming’s sparse population, to creatively adapt our services to meet the diverse needs of its communities.

Our setting is a comfortable and warm environment fostering recovery and a quality of life for our patients. Wyoming Recovery is not a lock-down treatment and recovery facility. We offer an open setting and encourage communication and involvement in community activities and recovery programs.

Welcome Statement

Our central location in Casper allows Wyoming Recovery to offer addiction treatment to patients from all over the United States. As a freestanding addiction treatment center, we provide affordable and tailored treatments based on our unique philosophy and recognized best practices. We offer support in all phases toward your sobriety. The staff at Wyoming Recovery is made up of committed professionals whose mission is to guide you toward and through certain steps to recovery from your addiction(s). We provide multiple levels of care, active case management, co-occurring mental health treatment and medical evaluation on site.

Our Facility

The Wyoming Recovery campus features four converted residential homes that provide a casual, homey atmosphere just one block east of Wyoming Medical Center. Residents are housed in a supervised, safe, and nurturing environment. Inpatient meals are provided through cooperation with Wyoming Medical Center and the 12/24 Club, complemented by trips to local restaurants. Learn more about what to expect as a Wyoming Recovery residential treatment patient or contact us to start the admissions process.

Our facility is licensed by the State of Wyoming Department of Health and accredited by the Joint Commission as a Behavioral Health Care Accreditation Program.

Admission to Wyoming Recovery

Our patients suffer from addiction, and they don’t suffer alone. Addiction is a growing problem and it affects everyone in the community — the addicts, their loved ones, their friends, their employers and their co-workers — and we all have to play a role in the recovery process.

If you — or someone you know — is suffering from an addiction illness we hope that you will find the courage to visit us at Wyoming Recovery and discover the path to a healthy, sober, drug-free lifestyle. To get started on your road to recovery, please call (307) 224-9470 to speak with a case manager.
