The purpose of the Heal The Heroes initiative is to provide military veterans and first responders with the opportunity to gain the healing they’ve been searching for during and after their transition from military and service careers to civilian life.
Each year, 104 Heroes (4 platoons of 26 veterans and first responders) complete the year long Heal The Heroes Program. The Heroes then graduate into the Heal the Heroes Veterans Community which integrates past, present and future platoons into a lifelong community providing lasting support, opportunity and motivation.
In 2023 Aerial Recovery will have 4 Platoons to go through the Heal The Heroes Retreat at Buck Island, British Virgin Islands.

PHASE 1: THE HEALING RETREAT
The Heal The Heroes initiative begins with a life-changing retreat held at Buck Island, a private island in the British Virgin Islands.
This retreat is an immersive experience where attendees will find center, discover their purpose, and create lasting bonds with those in the shared experience.
Veterans and first responders will go home with a renewed sense of purpose as well as the tools, community, and resources to be able to take their life, relationships and impact to the next level.
