August 31, 2025 — Project Return to Work Inc. (R2W) is proud to announce a new research initiative led by Raghav Singh, a Business Intelligence Developer at R2W and a graduate student in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning at Colorado State University. This project aims to uncover patterns in user engagement on the R2W website to enhance outreach and messaging strategies. 

The research explores a central question:
“What patterns in user engagement on the Project Return to Work website could help inform and improve outreach or messaging efforts?” 

To answer this, Raghav is combining cutting-edge analytics tools with thoughtful survey design. A Qualtrics survey will be deployed to gather qualitative insights from visitors—asking how they arrived at the site, what content resonated with them, and what emotions they experienced during their visit. These responses will help contextualize the quantitative data collected through Google Analytics, including metrics like: 

• Click-through rates 

• Page views and time on page 

• Bounce rates and exit pages 

• Traffic sources and user flow analysis 

“This is about finding the intersection between numbers and narratives,” Raghav explains. “If someone says they felt inspired by a veteran success story, and we see high scroll depth and time-on-page for that story, that’s a strong signal. But if users bounce quickly from the homepage, that tells us something needs to change.” 

The survey will be accessible via the R2W landing page and promoted across social media platforms. On-site feedback forms and pop-up surveys may also be used to increase participation—balanced carefully to avoid overwhelming users. 

Beyond improving the website, this initiative has strategic implications. By identifying which traffic sources bring in the most engaged users—not just the most users—R2W can prioritize outreach efforts more effectively. For example, LinkedIn may attract fewer visitors, but those visitors might be more likely to donate or engage deeply with content. 

Raghav’s work reflects a broader commitment to data-driven decision-making at R2W. “Setting up a GA4 property and web stream is a profound contribution,” he notes. “But it often requires advocacy and persistence. The insights we gain will help us better serve our mission and connect with the people who need us most.”

R2W helped its first soldier nearly three decades ago.  With just two months left before completing his active-duty military service, Sergeant Logan Jubeck had to prepare for a new chapter in life—one filled with opportunity, purpose, and hope. Thanks to the support of the nonprofit organization Project: Return to Work Inc. (R2W), Logan was able to envision a future that he once felt out of reach.

SGT Logan Jubeck was R2W’s first soldier via the National Guard’s Community Based Health Care Organization (CBHCO) nearly three decades ago.

“Without [R2W] I probably could have found a job on my own, but it wouldn’t have been as easy.”  Seargent Logan Jubeck

Injured while serving in Iraq, Jubeck found himself on another path with the National Guard’s Community Based Health Care Origination (CBHCO) where he met Rob Brazell, R2W’s Founder, and his father and Uncles at a special Muster for injured soldiers. When he learned about R2W, he saw a chance to move forward with confidence.

Rob and Fran Brazell quickly found an employer in a civil engineering field that Jubeck was just dreaming about.  He didn’t have the prerequisite education or experience, but the employer waived the requirements for Jubeck and mentored him while providing a high salary that helped stabilize his family after his combat injuries.

“I had a little bit of schooling and a little bit of experience, but I probably wouldn’t have had the courage to apply…”  Seargent Logan Jubeck

R2W was founded in 1998 by Rob Brazell, his mother Frankie (Fran) Nixon Brazell, his father Ray Brazell, and his lifetime mentor, Malcolm Crawford out of his victories over severe injuries and terminal illness.  They created R2W to help injured Guard and Reserve members transition from military to civilian life. “… we offer extensive vocational rehabilitation services,” Brazell explained. “And right now, there are a lot of employers looking for soldiers.” 

R2W partners with businesses and volunteers across the country to connect veterans with meaningful employment opportunities. The organization has helped over 10,000 individuals find jobs they never imagined possible—jobs that match their skills and values to bring out their resiliency.

Logan’s story is a testament to R2W’s mission empowering veterans to reclaim their futures. “These soldiers have an attitude that just can’t be beat,” said Brazell. “They may have lost their arms or legs, but they have a spirit that says, ‘I’m going to fight, I’m going to win, and I’m never going to give up.’

“These soldiers have an attitude that just can’t be beat.”   Rob Brazell.

 

As Logan separated from the military, he was able to renew his hope and find a clear path forward—thanks to the unwavering support of Project: Return To Work Inc.  (R2W) .

Project:  Return To Work Inc.  (R2W) just co-hosted its most innovative Heartbeat yet with the Scottish Terrier Club of Greater Denver (STCGD) at their Specialty Shows this year.  Sponsors, job seekers, employers, volunteer mentors, and mascots– it all came together for one of our community’s most impactful events yet.

The Greeley Kennel Club wrapped up its highly anticipated 2025 All-Breed Dog Shows this weekend at Island Grove Regional Park, drawing thousands of spectators and over 1,900 canine entries per day. The five-day event featured three All-Breed Shows, two Hound Group Shows, and more than 23 Breed Specialties, along with Obedience and Rally Trials, Barn Hunt, Dock Diving, and the AKC National Owner-Handled Series.

Among the standout participants were Olive (Yang) and Bilbo (Yin), two purebred Scottish Terrier puppies representing Project: Return To Work Inc. (R2W)—a nonprofit dedicated to helping veterans, disabled civilians, and military families find meaningful employment. These Scotties, bred from champion lines by Charlie Gann of Gallica Scottish Terriers and Annel Henderson of LockerB Kennel, earned First Place and Best Puppy honors, bringing pride and excitement to the R2W team.

In a video released by R2W, Rob Brazell, R2w’s Founder, and Anell Henderson of the Scottish Terrier Club of Greater Denver appeared alongside the winning dogs, celebrating the joy and healing that animals bring to the organization’s mission. “We were very happy to return to the Greeley Kennel Club with the help of the Scottish Terrier Club of Greater Denver,” said Brazell. “Both of our beautiful mascots, Bilbo and Olive, won first place ribbons—and we look forward to many more.”

R2W’s participation in the show reflects its broader commitment to community engagement and holistic rehabilitation. “Thank you to everyone for your support, donations, and tireless work toward making our mission possible,” said a spokesperson in the video.
