Vetted & Verified - Project: REBIRTH’s Standards for Trust
There are more than 50,000 veteran nonprofits registered in the USA. Nonprofits have little oversight and fewer guarantees of quality. Additionally, predatory for-profit entities (such as payday loans) seek to profit from veterans in need, instead of helping. Project: REBIRTH’s mission is to turn back the tide of overwhelming data and misinformation that threaten our most vulnerable veterans daily. Our database is comprised of government agencies, reliable nonprofits, and vetted local resources. Our Peer Specialists can rely on our one-stop resource of trustworthy information.
