Moral Injury Support Network for Servicewomen, Inc. (MISNS)
Serving as a Global Facilitator of Moral Injury Support, Advocacy, and Training in order to end the silent suffering of Servicewomen
MISNS (pronounced “Missions”) performs 3 major services for Women Veterans:
Direct Support: We help Women Veterans get access to healthcare, employment, education, food, shelter, and financial services through our network of partners.
Training: We educate Servicewomen, Families, and care providers on the causes of moral injury (MI), its symptoms and effect, coping strategies, and other aspects of MI.
Research: We conduct ground-breaking and cutting edge research on moral injury and how it affects Women Veterans and military families.
What is Moral Injury?
Moral injury (MI) is a concept that originated in the field of psychology and is often associated with the experiences of individuals, particularly those in high-stakes or traumatic situations, where their actions or the actions of others conflict with their deeply held moral or ethical beliefs. It is not a new concept, but its exploration and understanding have gained more attention in recent years, particularly in the context of military and healthcare settings.
Moral injury is different from traditional psychological trauma, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which typically focuses on the impact of witnessing or experiencing life-threatening events. Moral injury, on the other hand, is concerned with the psychological, emotional, and spiritual distress that arises from participating in or witnessing events that violate one’s moral or ethical code.
Honoring Those Who Served — Together with Walmart
We are deeply grateful to Walmart for their generous grant supporting the Veterans’ Hope Project, a initiative dedicated to empowering women veterans coping with PTSD. Through your support, we provide essential resources—food, clothing, laptops, and gift cards—that help restore stability and dignity. Beyond material aid, the initiative offers education, counseling, and peer support to foster healing, resilience, and independence.
Join Us in Giving Hope
This holiday season, you can make a direct impact by giving through our Walmart Gift Registry. Your gifts—whether baby supplies, toiletries, laundry detergent, or gift cards—go straight to veterans and their families recovering from hardship or disaster.
Every act of kindness helps a veteran rebuild with strength, hope, and community.
Together, we’re creating a stronger, more caring tomorrow.
MISNS is deeply grateful to our partners and sponsors whose generosity and commitment make our mission possible. Through their collaboration and support, we can provide essential training, resources, and services to servicewomen, military spouses, counselors, mental health professionals, and other veteran caretakers. Their contributions help us offer critical education on moral injury, facilitate healing conversations, and create a supportive community for those affected. With their backing, we continue to expand our reach, ensuring that those who serve and support our veterans receive the guidance and care they deserve.
Thank you for standing with us in this vital work.
