From active duty to civilian life did not allow me to seek help or guidance,” Harshman said. “Finally, one of my mentors and brothers, Hope For The Warriors® staff member Travis Hanson, calmed me down, listened to what I had to say, and vigorously told me what I needed to do. The support I get from Hope For The Warriors® and its mentorship is the driving force of my success.”  Although Hope For The Warriors® is an organization created to help service members, one of the key ways that veterans recover is by seeing others like them recover and thrive the way they did when they first got involved with Hope For The Warriors®. “The absolute best thing about the help I’ve received and continue to receive is the ability to instill Hope For The Warriors® professional characteristics in others like me,” said Harshman. “Someone has to start off somewhere at sometime, and I was that someone at one time. The feeling of seeing a positive difference for someone and possibly their family is extremely rewarding and lifts the spirit. I am honored to call Hope For The Warriors® my family because, in my opinion, only family can allow you into their lives and we allow them into ours.” To contact Hope For The Warriors®, you can visit hopeforthewarriors.org or call them toll free at 877-246-7349. They can also be accessed through the Department of Veteran Affairs or the Department of Defense. 106 // CELEBRITY MAGAZINE // O C T O B E R 2 015
