About the event

Warfighter Advance Auction & Gala
We're thrilled to invite you to our Denim & Diamonds Gala—a night where casual meets classy in the most dazzling way! ✨

Warfighter Advance (TM) is the creation of a team led by Mary Neal Vieten, PhD, ABPP, CDR, USN(ret), a board certified Navy psychologist, now retired after 22-years of service.During her career, Dr. Vieten worked with thousands of military members and developed strategies for returning members to the fight without medical-model interventions. Her team turned that knowledge into a 7-day training program for warfighters.

Approximately 600 warfighters have been trained through the program, leading to this data-supported outcome: after they graduate, the vast majority of our alumni significantly change their lives for the better. Warfighter Advance has been featured in a number of articles and documentaries such as Medicating Normal (www.medicatingnormal.com) and Wounded Heroes (www.wounded-heroes.org).

This program is available to any warfighter who self-identifies as having a need to attend. Active duty, reserve, and veteran personnel from any branch, men and women, are welcome, at no cost to the warfighter, up to and including transportation. The program is also open to all First Responders.

Our 3rd Annual Gala will be a memorable evening, as you'll hear stories from veterans about how impactful the Warfighter Advance is in the lives of those who've served our country. This event is open to all who want to support the cause!

If you cannot make the event in person, we encourage you to bid on the items, purchase raffle tickets or donate directly to the cause.

If you CAN make it, you might be wondering what to wear: Think chic western charm meets red carpet sparkle. Pair your favorite denim—whether it’s dark-wash jeans, a sleek denim jacket, or a stylish chambray dress—with something that shines. We’re talking crystal accessories, rhinestone boots, sequined tops, statement jewelry, or anything with a bit of glitz and glam. Gents might rock denim with a sharp blazer and bolo tie, while ladies can go from denim skirts to bedazzled tops or jumpsuits.

It’s all about having fun with the contrast—laid-back denim + high-shine details = perfectly on theme. Dress it up or down, just don’t forget the sparkle! 💎
