The Invictus Foundation has received a significant grant from CSX Corporation to install a behavioral telehealth platform in its Southeastern Regional Welcome Home Network. The grant will also support capital construction planning for eight regional TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) and behavioral health centers across the nation [1].
Peter J. Whalen, Founder and CEO of the Invictus Foundation, expressed gratitude for CSX's support, stating, "It's tremendously uplifting for the people we represent to see their service validated by a marquee corporate brand such as CSX. Importantly, that validation comes with a willingness by CSX to financially underwrite improved access and increased TBI and behavioral health services to our uniformed personnel, their families, and veterans who have experienced the crucible of war" [1].
LaSandra Boykin, Director of Community Investment at CSX, highlighted the company's commitment to strengthening the veteran community. "CSX is partnering with the Invictus Foundation to expand access to vital traumatic brain injury and behavioral health services for military service members, veterans, and their families," she said [1].
The Invictus Foundation is dedicated to meeting the TBI and behavioral health needs of uniformed services personnel, veterans, and their families in the communities where they work and live. With this grant, the foundation aims to continue its mission by recruiting volunteer behavioral health professionals to its Welcome Home Networks [1].
