Dianna Sisnero ~ Operation Comfort

Beyond The Frontline

In 2003, American Airline attendant, Janis Roznowski, started flying Soldiers and Marines in and out of Kuwait City. During this time she was deeply impacted watching them come home injured and ill. Feeling the need to give back, Janie started visiting wounded service members at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany and later Brooks Army Medical Center in San Antonio.

In 2004, she started the non-profit, Operation Comfort. What started out as a simple gesture to give back has morphed into supporting wounded warriors and their families through emergency financial assistance and adaptive sports.

Due to family health issues, Janis was unable to stay at the helm. However, with the help of executive director, Dianna Sisnero, and her team, Operation Comfort is in it’s 19th year, and continues to run strong.

Join Jay and Donna and they talk with Dianna about the mission of Operation Comfort, the gratification watching warriors overcome their adversity, and challenges of running a non-profit on a shoestring budget.

Dianna’s Bio

Dianna is currently the Executive Director for Operation Comfort, and is responsible for overall operations. She has been with the organization since June of 2007. She began her journey as the assistant to the Founder and Executive Director, Mrs. Janis Roznowski.

Before joining Operation Comfort, Dianna was the Family Readiness group leader of her then husband's unit located at Fort Drum, New York. She worked to support her unit's families who were transitioning in and out of the military, and during deployment.

Dianna was born and raised in New Braunfels, Texas and came home in December of 2006 after her husband was unexpectedly medically retired from the Army.

Dianna has always worked in the non-profit world and held several positions over the years as a Teacher, Social Service Assistant, and Assistant Program Director. She loves working with children and families in low income communities, children with different abilities, and of course service members and their families.

It is her mission to help Wounded, Ill, and Injured Service Members and Disabled Veterans through programs that keep them actively engaged in their healing. The programs that her and her team work tirelessly to offer provide recreation, rehabilitation, and most importantly, healing.
