Programs
3 programs
Aerial recovery's foundational initiative, heal the heroes, involves a year-long transformative program for struggling veterans and first responders. Participants embark on an immersive retreat to start their healing journey, bond with their platoon, and discover a renewed mission and purpose. This program cultivates many of them into 'humanitarian special operators'. Post-retreat, these 'heroes' are offered specialized training to effectively operate in austere environments. This equips them for vital roles in combating human trafficking, conducting disaster response, and leading humanitarian missions alongside ngo partners. Upon program completion, they are prepared to lead and serve in areas experiencing the greatest adversities.
Aerial recovery's anti-human trafficking initiative is a critical component of its mission to save lives and stop evil. By deploying our specially training "humanitarian special operators", the organization combats human trafficking on a global scale. These operators, comprised of select veterans and first responders, leverage their unique skills and experiences to rescue victims, dismantle trafficking networks, and work with local law enforcement to bring perpetrators to justice. Aerial recovery also funds and oversees a variety of aftercare services for trafficking survivors that protect and provide healing and rehabilitation. In some cases, this includes supporting non-profits that facilitate adoptions of rescued or vulnerable children. These initiatives reflect aerial recovery's commitment to protecting vulnerable populations and eradicating one of the world's most heinous crimes.
Aerial recovery's rescue and rehabilitation efforts extend to animals. Redemption ranch rescues and rehabilitates animals in desperate need. Once the animals are rehabilitated, they are used for specialized therapeutic programs for veterans with post traumatic stress, children with special needs, and individuals suffering from abuse.
