Mission Statement
The DAE Compound, Inc., a 5013c non-profit, was founded in memory of David Allen Elliott (DAE). David was an 8 year Army Sergeant 82nd Airborne Army Veteran that died, suicide by alcohol in 2015. The DAE Compound deploys on a moment's notice to provide supportive services within our region of North Georgia, Tennessee & North Carolina. We provide peer to peer (veteran to veteran) on call services t hat react to Combat Veterans in distress. Our community based program renders in person relief and response to any Veteran that is experiencing real time crisis and render s stabilization services in a housing crisis, food shortage, suicidal idealizations, divorce trauma, etc. We offer these services with the utmost respect and honor to each Combat Veteran in distress to meet them where they are, and find solutions specific to the individual Veteran' s need. Our mission is to succeed with every deployment. We WILL NOT let any Combat Veteran experiencing crisis in our service region go unattended if it is within our means to assist. Our mission, our rapid response deployment, renders immediate aid at a count of 2-10 Veteran served per month (and growing). We strive to stabilize Veterans in crisis and we succeed. The suicide rate of US Combat Veterans is growing daily in the United States. Our mission is to be a measurable effort to bring new hope to Veterans in our community and to stop at nothing to save a Hero from taking his/her own life. We are strong. We are proud. We are privileged to be The DAE Compound!
