WHY THIS RETREAT MATTERS

Empowering Patriots to Fully Heal and Be Made Whole Again

To provide a safe, transformative space for former January 6th defendants to heal physically, mentally, and emotionally through holistic wellness, community, and purpose-driven activities — tailored to the unique trauma, stress, and anxiety they’ve endured. Thousands of these American patriots face lasting impacts from incarceration, including isolation, stigma, and limited access to recovery resources.

This retreat is a chance to restore what was lost: purpose, strength, and brotherhood.

THE MISSION

To provide a space where January 6th defendants can reconnect with themselves, others, and God through structured healing, physical recovery, and shared purpose.

 

We are building a foundation of renewal — mind, body, and spirit — for men who stood for their beliefs and now seek a path forward.

WHY HEALING IS URGENT

Restoration begins with real support.

  • Over 70% of incarcerated individuals report symptoms of trauma or mental health struggles upon release.

  • 1 in 4 experience PTSD.

  • Nutrition and exercise during incarceration are often inadequate, compounding long-term health issues.

  • Former January 6ers face added public scrutiny, often with broken families and limited job opportunities.

WHAT THEY ENDURED

Could you imagine living in an 8x10 cell for four years with little to no interaction with others… and then being thrown back into reality?

Yes, they have been pardoned — and we are deeply grateful to President Trump for his leadership — but their healing journey has only just begun. They are suffering from emotional detachment, overstimulation, and symptoms similar to ADHD.

  • 72% are Veterans or First Responders

  • Many endured prolonged solitary confinement

  • Torn away from their families and support systems

  • 99.6% conviction rate

THE ONGOING STRUGGLE

This retreat is a catalyst — the first step in a long journey of restoration and reintegration.

  • Lost homes, vehicles, and life savings

  • Public defamation and targeted harassment

  • 4-year gaps in employment history

  • Struggling to rebuild a life in a world that moved on without them
