The United States Air Force continues to honor the sacrifices of wounded Airmen, their families and the caregivers who support them. As a fundamental tenant of the Chief of Staff of the Air Force’s Resilience Tactical Pause initiative, the Air Force Wounded Warrior Program (AFW2) works together with the Air Force Survivor Assistance Program, Airman & Family Readiness Centers and the Air Force Medical Service to provide concentrated non-medical care and support for wounded, ill and injured Airmen as they recover and transition back to duty or into civilian life. As a Congressionally-mandated, federally funded program that is functionally aligned and operationally aligned under the Air Force Personnel Center, AFW2 provides personalized and restorative care to more than 10,000 wounded warriors, their families and/or caregivers.
