Caregiver Retreat

Offering rest, connection, and renewal for those who care for our nation’s Special Operations Forces heroes.

In addition to Creating Bonds that Cure between SOF couples, OHF realizes that our military SOF spouses need an opportunity to create their own bonds to help encourage and support one another.

These individuals have courageously shouldered many burdens, often raising families alone while pursuing their own careers and personal aspirations.

At Operation Healing Forces, our Caregiver Retreats provide much-needed respite for the unsung heroes behind our Special Operations Forces—spouses and caregivers. These retreats offer the opportunity for deep renewal, forming a critical part of our Special Operations Additional Resource Programs (SOAR).

By connecting with fellow caregivers who understand the unique challenges and joys of their role, attendees can build lasting friendships and find solace in shared experiences. Through a variety of activities, including yoga, meditation, and nature therapy, caregivers can recharge and return to their daily lives with renewed energy and a strengthened support network.

Join our Caregiver Retreats to rest, connect, and find support.

Supporting Military Families: The Importance of Caregiver Retreats

Caregivers are the foundation of military families, providing both emotional and physical care to their loved ones. Often, they do so without taking time for their own needs. Our Caregiver Retreats are designed to give these dedicated individuals the chance to heal, find support, and connect with others who truly understand their journey. By supporting military families through these retreats, Operation Healing Forces strengthens the bonds that keep Special Operations Forces communities resilient.
