The Journey began with an alliance of three Principal Founders wanting to make a difference with intensive life planning information enabling our military men and women in the transition to purposeful, productive, and meaningful civilian lives.

Issues and needs for "Operation Legacy" Workbook: There is a gap between military and civilian life. Lack of foundational preparation in civilian life planning strategies sets the stage for a downward spiral including apathy, unemployment, broken relationships, addiction and depression.

Our Vision is to see our military men, women and their families successfully "cross the gap" and transition into civilian life with purpose, passion, focus, and meaning.

Our Mission is to provide every Military man, woman and their families with this information, insight and skills to successfully develop their life plan to bridge military life to civilian life.

Our Values are to trust in God, embrace purpose in life, and to believe in and support our American Freedoms.  With a bias for aligning mission, passion, purpose, and action, we strive to support military men, women and their families to achieve a successful, meaningful and happy life after Military Duty.
