All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton were honored to welcome Derek DeVos, Technical Sergeant (Retired), USAF as guest to the show.

 

About Derek DeVos, Technical Sergeant (Retired), USAF:

 

Derek raised his right hand in January 2009 and served over 15 years in the United States Air Force.

 

From Utah to Alaska, the Republic of Korea to North Carolina and New Mexico, and through two deployments that tested every part of him, he carried both the pride and the weight of being an Airman.

 

Derek's career ended early when PTSD and physical conditions caught up with him, and he was medically retired on September 15, 2024.

 

Derek is now a 100% disabled veteran, continuing the mission through The PTSD, Inc., a nonprofit he founded in Statesville, NC to ensure veterans and families don’t have to fight alone.

 

 

About The PTSD:

 

The PTSD, Inc. is a disabled veteran-founded nonprofit based in Statesville, NC, built from lived experience. Our mission is to reduce barriers for veterans and their families by providing peer-led support, community-driven resources, and practical tools that restore stability and hope. We believe every veteran deserves a clear path forward, and no family should have to fight PTSD alone.

 

We keep it simple:

• The PATH – veterans walking together through peer-led support groups.

• The HUB – a one-stop resource navigation center, that ends dead ends and red tape in the system.

• BRAVE TAILS – veterans and shelter dogs healing side by side .

• The AIMS – adaptive memory and accountability support, helping track spirals and wins.

• The 2nd Front – our fastest-growing lane, designed for caregivers, spouses, and families. Behind every veteran is a second front line: caregivers carrying the invisible weight. This program gives them a peer-led community of their own, with respite, tools, and recognition. All Home Care Matters was one of the first to recognize and amplify this vision , proving the urgency and resonance of supporting caregivers.

 

It’s not theory. It’s lived experience turned into action, a closed-loop ecosystem designed to scale across communities, reduce crisis events, and strengthen families.
