Our veterans had the opportunity to connect and bond through various recreational activities, including hiking, kayaking, fishing, and engaging fireside chats. The serene environment of the Adirondack Mountains provided a perfect backdrop for a weekend of nature therapy, fostering camaraderie and rejuvenation among our participants. We are committed to empowering veterans and supporting their journey towards healing and hope. Stay tuned for more updates on our upcoming events and programs! Our retreats are made possible thanks to the Staff Sergeant Parker Gordon Fox Suicide Prevention Grant Program, the Joseph P.
