Wounded warriors support and recovery resources for Reservists, service members, and veterans
The following are some resources I gathered to help wounded warriors from the Army, Air Force, Navy, Coast Guard, and Marines.
Homes for our troops (Builds & adapts vets’ home for handicapped accessibility)
Mighty Oaks Foundation – offers peer-to-peer resiliency and recovery programs offered at no cost to our honored service men and women.
Operation Heal Our Patriots gives wounded veterans and their spouses the opportunity for spiritual refreshment, physical renewal, and marriage enrichment.
Triple B Adventures was created with the purpose of reconnecting veterans with their brothers and sisters. Through outdoor adventures we give veterans a sense of belonging they may have lost since transitioning out of the military. Our “Pine Tree Therapy” includes hiking, fishing and camping excursions aimed at restoring our warriors and giving them something to belong to once again.
