2025 Inaugural Summit Recap

Arlington, Virginia
June 3, 2025

NAVFRW's inaugural Wellness Summit, hosted in partnership with the Arlington County Police Department at Nestle USA headquarters, brought together 179 leaders from across healthcare, law enforcement, and federal systems. The event featured 15 speakers from 11 cross-sectors addressing suicide prevention, trauma-informed care, and the gap between federal systems and community-based services. 82% of attendees were veterans, first responders, or their family members.

“We are looking to unify First Responder and Veteran communities - including their supporters and families - so that no one who wears a uniform for this great Nation is without the best access to best in class health, mental health and substance use care.”

– Eric Golnick, NAVFRW Founder and Chairman
