About Brat Corps® – The First and Only Home Base for Military Brats
Value 1: Military-Brat Identity
We center and celebrate military-brat identity as a unique, valuable, and permanent part of who we are. Military brats are resilient, adaptable, globally-minded leaders. We honor that identity in everything we do.
Value 3: Community First
We prioritize community, connection, and mutual support over competition or profit. We are a nonprofit because military brats and their families deserve leadership that puts mission before money.
Value 5: Equity & Inclusion
We serve all military brats—regardless of military branch, rank, income, ability, identity, or background. Our programs are accessible, culturally competent, and actively anti-discriminatory.
Value 2: Permanent Belonging
We create physical and emotional home bases where military brats belong—no matter where they move, no matter their age. Belonging is not conditional; it is permanent.
Value 4: Integrity & Transparency
We operate with complete transparency. Our governance is open (DAO multisig, token-holder voting, public financials). We hold ourselves accountable to the military-brat community we serve.
