High Touch, High Impact: What It Means at COMMIT


At The COMMIT Foundation, we believe that true transformation comes from more than just participation—it comes from deep, meaningful engagement. When we say we are a “high-touch, high-impact” organization, we’re not just talking about a tagline; we’re describing our commitment to those we serve, the community we are a part of, and the exceptional outcomes we strive to achieve for each individual. We are a premium organization dedicated to helping high-potential people, and our goal is simple: “Set them up for success in their next chapter and beyond.”

High Touch: Personalized, Intentional Connection

"High touch" means we engage with people in ways that are personalized and deeply intentional. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all approaches. Every veteran, spouse, and transitioning leader that comes through COMMIT is treated as an individual with unique talents, experiences, and goals. Our commitment to “high touch” means that we spend time understanding their needs, their challenges, and their aspirations. We get to know them and the type of life they envision for their future. This personalized approach allows us to craft tailored solutions that position them for success, whether they are looking to enter the business world, academia, non-profit leadership, or another chapter in their lives.

At COMMIT, our high-touch ethos starts from the very first interaction. We pair each person with a dedicated Director of Veteran Services (DVS) and a certified professional coach who walks alongside them through the entire journey. This isn’t just about providing resources; it’s about creating a partnership and community that supports and empowers each individual. Our workshops are intimate, hands-on experiences where personal connections are fostered and lasting relationships are built. Every touchpoint is about creating value, and ensuring each participant feels seen, heard, and supported.

High Impact: Real, Lasting Change

While high touch focuses on the “how,” high impact is about the “outcome”. The impact we strive for at COMMIT goes beyond getting someone a job or simply helping them through a transition. We focus on transformative change. We want to set people up to not only succeed in their next chapter but to thrive as leaders and continue to make meaningful contributions to their communities and industries.

Our commitment to “high impact” means we don’t measure success by short-term outcomes. Instead, we look for deep, lasting change in the lives of those we serve. We want participants and their families to find not just employment but purpose. We want them to emerge from our programs with a renewed sense of identity and a clear path toward personal and professional fulfillment. This is why we invest in high-potential individuals—those who aspire to make a difference in their next chapter and who want to lead, innovate, and serve again in new ways. We know that serving your community, whatever community that is, is serving your country.

The impact we create is not limited to individuals. Our participants go on to become leaders who influence their organizations, industries, and communities. They take the lessons learned from COMMIT—their newfound clarity of purpose, leadership skills, and personal growth—and apply them to create ripple effects of positive change.

Why High Touch, High Impact Matters

Being a premium organization means we hold ourselves to the highest standard in everything we do. We don’t just want to be another stepping stone in someone's transition journey—we want to be the catalyst that launches them toward their future. This requires us to be deeply engaged (high touch) and focused on creating meaningful, sustainable outcomes (high impact).

At COMMIT, “high touch” and “high impact” go hand in hand. You can’t have one without the other. Personalized, intentional engagement, with time for individual reflection, is what creates the space for transformation, and the transformation we’re after is one that truly changes lives. Our participants don’t just walk away with tools and resources; they leave with a sense of purpose, direction, and the confidence to lead in their next chapter.

Building Futures, Together

The COMMIT Foundation is where your next chapter begins—and where you will be set up for lifelong success. Our “high-touch, high-impact” approach means that we commit to walking alongside you through your life’s journey, helping you navigate your unique transition with clarity, purpose, and support. We are not in the business of just helping people move forward; we are in the business of building futures, inspiring leaders, and creating real change.

If you’re ready to commit to your future, we are ready to commit to you.
