Why We Do What We Do
Every day, veterans and first responders—our nation’s Sheep Dogs—quietly carry the weight of their service. Many return home or come off shift changed, unseen, and unsupported. At Sheep Dog Impact Assistance (SDIA), we believe that no hero should feel left behind after the uniform comes off.

GREENLAND, Ark. — Crews with Sheep Dog Impact Assistance are set to be back in Greenland, Arkansas, Tuesday, after multiple tornadoes hit Washington County.
Around 7:30 p.m. Monday, a possible tornado touched down west of Greenland, causing damage to homes and business.
"We like to say that helping is healing, so going out and helping others is a huge aspect of what we do," said Bob Corscadden, director of disaster response for Sheep Dog. "A lot of times, we help people that wouldn't normally get any help, don't have insurance. No one's coming to help them anytime soon. And so that's really the kind of people we look for."
Thousands were without power in Washington County Tuesday morning.

In Honor of Bernie Marcus
This is a great loss for our veteran community, and words cannot fully capture the depth of Bernie Marcus’s impact. As many of you may know, Bernie was a steadfast and primary supporter of Warrior PATHH (Progressive Alternative Training for Healing Heroes) and the PTG (Post Traumatic Growth) efforts, which have been transformative in supporting our nation’s veterans. Through his generosity and vision, Bernie helped provide invaluable resources and opportunities for veterans to heal and thrive, especially in addressing the unique challenges they face when returning to civilian life.
