Tactical Resiliency USA Mission-Human Performance

Learn More

Tactical Resiliency USA (TRUSA) is built on one mission: maximize human performance under pressure. We serve the men and women who operate in high-stakes environments—military, law enforcement, fire/EMS, and everyday leaders—by equipping them with practical tools to reset, refocus, and perform at their highest level after critical incidents, operational stress, or life challenges.

At TRUSA, we don’t position people as patients—we train them as operators. Our approach is rooted in performance optimization, cognitive control, and emotional regulation, giving individuals the ability to take ownership of their internal state in real time. The philosophy is simple and proven: don’t create dependence—build capability. When you know how to control your response, you control your outcome.

Through our Tactical Resiliency Training, participants learn how to:

  • Rapidly reset after high-stress events

  • Regain clarity, focus, and decision-making ability

  • Strengthen emotional discipline under pressure

  • Build sustainable, repeatable resilience for long-term performance

TRUSA is leading a shift from traditional “recovery” models to a performance-driven framework—where resilience is not just about bouncing back, but about operating stronger, faster, and more effectively every time.

Train the mind. Control the response. Elevate performance.

Vision-Survival

Our vision is clear: build resilient, high-performing operators who can think clearly, act decisively, and sustain excellence over time—because in this profession, performance is survival.

Community Outsourcing of Trauma

Communities across the nation outsource trauma to first responders, veterans, and active-duty service members—those who routinely absorb the psychological impact of critical incidents, emergencies, and combat so others don’t have to. At Tactical Resiliency USA (TRUSA), our mission is to transform how that burden is managed by delivering human performance optimization and trauma recovery solutions that work in real time.

Through the Trauma Resiliency Protocol – Peer Rescue (TRP-PR), TRUSA provides a non-clinical, peer-based trauma intervention deeply rooted in Evidence Based Practices and are designed to rapidly process traumatic stress and negative emotional load—often within hours of exposure, without requiring detailed incident disclosure. This approach enables agencies and communities to outsource trauma more effectively, ensuring those who serve can maintain cognitive clarity, emotional control, and operational readiness.

By integrating community-based trauma outsourcing with performance-focused training, TRUSA helps reduce long-term health risks, improve resilience, and protect the families and futures of those who protect us.

About Dan Jarvis

Masters of Public Administration, from Central Michigan University
U.S. Army retired, Sergeant First Class (E-7)
Deputy Sheriff retired
Former U.S. Army Drill Sergeant

In 2011-2012, Retired Army SFC Dan Jarvis was deployed to Afghanistan. Shortly after arriving, he stepped on a pressure plate and triggered an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) just five feet from his position during a dismounted patrol. The blast left Dan with a traumatic brain injury, but he insisted on continuing to lead his troops. However, after being evaluated by the Battalion surgeon, he was sidelined for a week.

Despite suffering from weeks of sleeplessness due to the effects of the blast, Dan led his squad on a mission to escort an explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) team to defuse a bomb found by another platoon. As the truck commander (TC) in the lead vehicle, Dan’s responsibility was to detect any IEDs along the route and ensure safe passage for the other vehicles in the convoy. Tragically, an undetected IED exploded under the fourth vehicle, killing SPC Doug Cordo. Dan took the loss of Doug deeply to heart, feeling personally responsible for failing to find the IED, as detecting these threats was part of his job as TC.
