Our Team
"Lest We Forget"
Restoring Our Heroes was founded by Dr. Bob Briggs. Blessed with the dedication, generosity, and commitment of our team below, all who have attended our RESTORING OUR HEROES 4-R RETREATS, we pledge to continue to grow the programs and offer healing opportunities to our Heroes. We Dare to Win!
Our MISSION
Our veterans and first responders suffer trials that no one but those who have been through them can understand. As a result they are not the same person they were when they started their career, resulting in a struggle to reintegrate back into society. There comes a point in each vet/1st responder's life when they must try to make sense of the darkness in their soul and reclaim their own humanity and re-engage with the humanity of others. Restoring Our Heroes offers a process through its "Hole in the Wall" retreats where our heroes experience healing and transformation in their lives.

Restoring Our Heroes offers a process through its 4-R Reteats,where our Heroes can Reconnect with people dealing with similar issues, Reconcile with their past, Reload with advice and tools for the future, and finally be Restored as a productive member of society. Our 4-R Retreats are interspersed with wellness training and post-traumaitc growth, where our heroes experience healing and transformation in their lives.
Camaraderie at its best!
"Restoring Our Heroes loaned us their spirit of community, of gratitude, and of belonging. They loaned us their soul and helped me remember where I had put mine"
