Return to Work

Congratulations to Natalie Springett, Boulder County Commissioner's Deputy, on receiving the ESGR Patriot Award for her outstanding support of employees serving in the National Guard and Reserve!

This recognition, presented by Rob Brazell, Boulder area chair for ESGR, highlights exactly the kind of leadership our military community deserves. At Project: Return to Work, we are proud to be part of a broader network of community leaders who show up for those who serve.

Stories like Natalie's remind us why R2W's mission matters — supporting veterans and military families as they transition back to the workforce takes a whole community.

Some missions outlast the people who start them.

R2W's Founder has given over 200,000 hours to this mission. His mother gave every bit as much — and now, her estate is carrying that legacy forward to fuel Project: Return To Work Inc.

R2W House and R2W Village are built on that kind of integrity. But they need more than founders — they need a community willing to show up.

It takes 5 minutes to sign up to volunteer or donate. That's it.

Our founder, Rob Brazell, was just featured on Colorado Conversations!

He sat down with Ken Clark to share the story of Project: Return to Work — and what drives us every single day to help veterans and disabled Americans find jobs, hope, and a path forward.

We've been doing this work since 1998. Free. For everyone who needs it.
