issues that Veterans are coping with; and OUTREACH: Community Networking, engaging with other non-profits to foster connection and collaboration and ensure Veterans a pathway to success.
Today, while there are many Veterans’ organizations working in the creative arts, Task Force: ISO is the only organization in the U.S. that uses education and photography to foster engagement and community. Through our IMAGING program, we support more than 20 non- profit organizations across the United States with professional imagery. In 2017, this resulted in positive images of over 2,000 individual Veterans at 34 events. Currently, Task Force: ISO has professional photographer volunteers in seven states (CO, WY, TX, NC, CA, MA, and VA). Each year our network grows, as does our outreach and impact.
