VA Pro Elite Believes...
Elite athletes are more than a single story. They have a purpose greater than their accomplishments, greater than their physical attributes, + greater than the role they play in the eyes of others.
Elite athletes are strong, disciplined, and talented. Their sport is a vehicle for life learning and a powerful expressive outlet. Their fellow athletes provide a community, understanding, and belonging.
Elite athletes experience pain, devastation, and sometimes trauma. They are human and need others to help heal. When the trauma heals, the power of their unique story and their truth can be used to empower others.
Elite athletes can be healers. They are souls with a purpose for good. Their vulnerability becomes a power for healing. The special status and experience as an elite athlete capture the attention of a child. Their caring relationship can be a game-changer in a traumatized child's life for the good.
Children who have been traumatized need inspiration and hope. VAProElite mentors provide this and change the child's life as a result.
