Our Mission
Task Force Dagger Special Operations Foundation provides assistance to wounded, ill, or injured US Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) members and their families. We respond to urgent needs, conduct Rehabilitative Adaptive Events (RAE), and provide next-generation health solutions for issues facing our service members.
Founded and run by special ops veterans, we understand the complexities of the long journey to physical and family wellness. Each of our programs are designed to provide the tools and atmosphere for SOF families to heal, rebuild, and move forward together with mission, purpose, and focus.
Chairman of the Executive Board, Mark Stephens, shares the story of the TFDSOF’s impact on the SOF community.
Our impact
My family and I sincerely thank you for the support provided so I could travel to Walter Reed Hospital. Your support allowed me to be at my Soldier daughter’s side as she underwent extensive surgery. I was her non-medical assistant and actually transported her to and from her surgery, then spent 10 days caring for her non-medical needs. It is quite comforting knowing that your organization exists and takes care of our service members and their families. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to all of Task Force Dagger and their contributors.”

I would not be here today if it wasn’t for the things TFDF interjected into me.

The difference that it’s made in my life and all the friends that I’ve recommended the program to is monumental.

Thank you so much for your check in reimbursement of my airfare and hotel expenses connected with my trip to Walter Reed Hospital. As you know, my son, Joe Morris, is in the U.S. Special Forces; and he was injured in the recent ISIS bomb attack in Syria. He was transferred to Water Reed from Germany as he suffered damage to his hearing in both ears.
Fortunately, and thanks to you, I was able to put together a last-minute trip to visit Joe. Just seeing my son’s face and giving him a hug meant the world to both of us.
Thanks again. Your kindness will always be remembered.

Restoring Warfighters to Optimal Health
The increase in cancers and suicides within the Special Operations Forces (SOF) community is undeniable and was the impetus for the SOF Health Initiative Program. Exposures and experiences shared among the Special Operations Forces services members are a direct correlation with the health conditions they harbor. Task Force Dagger Special Operations Foundation is on the frontlines raising awareness for the toxic exposure-related illness. The SOF Health Initiatives Program and is providing access to functional medicine approaches that deliver lifestyle, integrative, and nutritional interventions that address the root causes of dysfunction in the SOF community members. The goal of the program is to provide a framework for a person-oriented approach to wellness that restores warfighters to optimal health.
