Who we are:

Industry Experts, Licensed and Certified,
Veteran & Civilian teammates.

The Academy of Military Culture offers combined decades of experience to help civilians better understand and be more effective with Military service members, Veterans, and their family members to improve connection, understanding, and trust in their work and in their lives.

The Academy of Military Culture training is one of the few organizations that have the background and expertise of a Veteran with a mental health and training background AND a licensed mental health professional with a lifetime of additional equine therapy training.

Who are MCC Trainings for?

Healthcare professionals who want to, or who are already working with Military Service Members, Veterans and their families (SMVF).

Mental Health professionals as well as Recreational and Complementary Therapists, coaches, etc.

Organizations, educators, and companies who work with or employ individuals from the SMVF community.

MCC training enables a better understanding of the unique strengths and vulnerabilities of the SMVF community.

Veterans are the most diverse group within the US
Less than 1% of the US population is currently serving active duty in the Military
About 7% of the US population are Veterans
In Colorado there are over 400,000 Veterans
Only 30% of all Veterans are served by the VA
Civilians are increasingly involved at the VA and other VSOs (Veteran Service Organizations)

When civilians are not versed in military culture and language, it creates barriers to communication, trust, and program success.

Learn how to incorporate the foundation of the Warrior Ethos into your evidence-based practice.

Recognize and remove barriers to communication and trust.

Military & Veteran families also serve: it is our responsibility to include and invite them into the healing process.

Benefits of Cultural Competence

It is our ethical responsibility to learn cultural competence within the communities we serve.

Reframe common misconceptions of the military/veteran community to better understand the complexity of service. It’s not all about PTS/D.
