Hearts of Valor
Hearts of Valor is a network of people caring for wounded, ill or injured service members, created and maintained by Operation Homefront.
Operation Homefront seeks to support these caregivers in their own journey of healing by facilitating an online community that provides social connections to other caregivers in similar situations, fostering support groups by geographic area to encourage resource sharing and friendships, and sponsoring annual retreats to provide education on relevant issues.
Additionally, the program recognizes each person's personal sacrifice by sending a welcome gift upon their acceptance to the program.
