Founded in 2004, Imprints of Honor facilitates an after-school Character and Civic Education Program for students in grades 7-12 and college in Arizona schools and communities.  Students build character, leadership, and 21st century skills by connecting with veterans who share their stories of service with the next generation. Core elements of the program include writing, publishing, and archiving veteran service stories; presenting their work to veterans at an annual book reception; engaging in civic events; and scholarships.  Veterans continue to shared deeper understanding of first-person history, patriotism, civic duty, and sacrifice through classroom and community presentations.

The program builds appreciation for veterans and their service, bridges gaps with the civilian population by providing insights into the realities of military life, preserves their legacy for their family and future generations, and provides a cathartic experience which supports healing from moral injury and PTSD.
