Glass Soldier

We are a duty-bound and data driven 501(c)(3) organization focused on reducing the prevalence of military sexual trauma by fostering community collaborations, offering survivor-centered support and promoting education and prevention initiatives that empower individuals and drive cultural change within the military.

Founder's Journey

My name is Diandra Poe, I am a veteran, mother, and servant leader. I answered the call to serve my country when I was 31 years old. I arrived at my first duty station in December 2011 and within 90 days was assaulted in my home by another service member. While justice was served, it was not swift and without cost. My career hung in the balance and the retaliation and toll of the event, played a major role in me ending my profession as an officer before I wanted to. The one thing this tragedy did provide, was a clear path to healing and helping my battles.
