About Honoring Our Veterans
Our programs improve the mental and physical health of wounded warriors. We offer a variety of outdoor activities with expert instruction in order to introduce wounded veterans to the wide variety of outdoor recreational opportunities they can use to promote their healing. Each group is small, and the veterans are kept together at all times. One of the most significant factors to successful healing and reintegration is time spent with others who have had the same experience. Many of our wounded Soldiers and Marines are unable to share their traumatic experiences with their spouses and families, for fear that they will not be able to relate. This isolation is detrimental to healing and reintegration. The sharing that occurs when veterans are among their brothers is a major building block in the recovery process.
