IMR Home

America is the land of the free because of the brave. When soldiers go to war and put themselves in harm’s way – they may come back wounded. Understanding the unique needs of military service members, veterans, and their families, Liberty University established the Institute for Military Resilience (IMR) as a center of excellence for military outreach.

IMR is impacting the lives or servicemembers and families through:

• Establishing relevant, faith-based curriculum
• Tackling issues, causes, treatments and prevention pertaining to military combat
• Encouraging spouses and families dealing with the reality of military life
