Coronavirus (COVID-19) Updates

To promote the health and safety of our staff and those we serve, we are currently seeing clients by appointment only.

Our goal is to maintain open lines of communication with warriors and partners without compromising the health of our community. We fully understand that widescale pandemics can cause isolation and create feelings of uncertainty. Please call 864-520-2073 or email info@upstatewarriorsolution.org if you have a general question or would like to speak with a staff member.

If you are already connected with our organization, please contact your assigned UWS Warrior Advocate if you need support or have a scheduled appointment.

Organizations like Upstate Warrior Solution depend on fundraising events and individual donations to sustain our work in the community. We are continuing to serve our veterans and their spouses through this pandemic, and we know many in our warrior community will feel the strain of this situation acutely. Your ongoing and generous support during this time will be more important than ever. Donations can be made here.
