Counseling services are available to all eligible children beginning at a young age. By setting the expectation of a post-secondary education, our students begin setting their academic and professional goals from a young age. SOWF’s counselors are there to ensure that each student is on track to reach those goals.
SOWF’s communication with each student and family is ongoing and consistent. Birthday cards are sent to all “children” of fallen Special Operators, whether they are celebrating their first birthday or one many years later. Whenever the Scholarships Team travels, we always look for ways to spend time with our students and families through luncheons and casual dinners.
SOWF’s Scholarships & Family Outreach Team provides informational briefings to Special Operations commands and units.
To request an informational briefing, contact SOWF at (813) 805-9400 or email scholarships@specialops.org
