How We Serve
Heroes Reunions
Our Heroes Reunions are curated experiences that bring defender communities back into connection as an important reminder that they’re not alone. Reuniting these heroes creates a community of trust, where they can confront post-traumatic stress and learn to thrive in civilian life.
Too Many Heroes Are Fighting Alone
Suffering in Silence
A Loss of Community
The transition to civilian life can be isolating, leaving many heroes without the structure, camaraderie, and sense of purpose they relied on during their service. Without connection to those who truly understand their experiences, feelings of alienation deepen, making it harder to seek help or find a path forward. The result is a quiet struggle that too often goes unseen.
The Cost of Freedom
4x
Since 9/11, four times as many U.S. service members and veterans have died by suicide than have been killed in combat.

Building a Lifelong Network of Support
Nothing replaces the trust and understanding forged during service. These reunions restore those connections in safe, judgment-free spaces where heroes can open up, laugh, and heal together. Each reunion rekindles the camaraderie that helps veterans and first responders navigate post-traumatic stress, depression, and invisible wounds. Participants leave empowered, supported, and ready to lead in their families, workplaces, and hometowns.

Remembering Their Fallen
By honoring their fallen, our heroes can lighten the weight of grief while finding strength in remembrance.
Finding the Path of Growth
Our heroes can lean on one another to navigate their post-traumatic stress into post-traumatic growth.

"My unit members needed me just as much as I needed them."
I can't believe I almost flaked on my platoon and didn't go because of personal hang-ups and fears. My friends at home pushed me onto a plane and I'm glad they did. Thank you for bringing us all together again.
