Heroes' Movement


  • Mission

    Heroes' Movement is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit that strengthens Veterans' physical and mental well-being through movement-based workouts and athletics.

    About Us

    We accomplish this goal by partnering with gyms nationwide to provide the training. The gym doesn't charge the Veterans; it promotes that Veterans train for free, and we reimburse the gyms for the sessions they train.

    Every gym we partner with follows the post-traumatic stress (PTS) and traumatic brain injury (TBI) training guidelines to ensure our Veterans are taken care of. Our program is available to any aged Veteran from any of the branches. A VA disability rating is NOT required to join.

    Goals of the program:

    1. To bridge the gap between physical therapy and feeling strong again.
    2. To create a continued sense of community for our Veterans so they can reinforce their strengths together.
    3. To reduce dependency on prescription drugs.
    4. To reduce suicide risk.
