Adam Marr is the Director of Operations, Veteran Mental Health Leadership Coalition. He is a veteran, entrepreneur, and international advocate for innovation in mental health and human flourishing. After nearly a decade of service as an Army Apache helicopter pilot with over 1,500 flight hours, Adam transitioned from the battlefield into a mission focused on healing the invisible wounds of war.
Over the past decade, he has worked at the intersection of program development, advocacy, and public policy to advance new approaches for treating post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury. Adam serves as Director of Operations for the Veteran Mental Health Leadership Coalition (VMHLC), a national coalition of service organizations, researchers, clinicians, and policy leaders working to expand access to effective and innovative mental health care. He also serves on the advisory board for Psychedelics Europe, supporting international efforts to advance innovative mental health treatments for trauma related to war and conflict.
Adam has testified before the United States Senate Committee on Veterans' Affairs regarding alternative therapies for veteran mental health.

He is the founder of CallSign Mobile, a mission-driven telecommunications company built on a simple idea: everyday economic activity can help fund healing and strengthen communities.
Adam lives in Alabama with his wife and three children and continues to dedicate his work to helping veterans and communities build a healthier future. His goal is to reflect his faith in Christ through servant leadership and a lifelong commitment to building systems that heal.
