Healing for the Front Lines of Home

At Rooted Recovery Resources, we are deeply passionate about supporting our country’s military personnel and veterans. With our own families’ military backgrounds—including Gary’s thirteen years of service—we understand that the battle doesn't always end when you return home. Often, a new and different battle begins on the home front.

We believe in a multi-faceted approach to recovery that goes beyond surface-level symptoms. By providing a holistic, faith-centered environment, we help veterans uncover the root sources of their pain to find lasting healing and true freedom.

Our Commitment to You

To ensure there are no barriers to your recovery, we offer free services, workshops, and resources, including:

Peer Support: Connect with those who truly understand your journey.

  • Military Trauma Programs: Specialized curriculum like Reboot Trauma to navigate the unique challenges of service.

  • Life Skills & Boundaries: Practical tools for rebuilding a healthy, balanced life.

  • Community Connection: Join us for our Finding Freedom groups or veteran breakfasts to plug into a supportive local community.

Whether you are looking for a place to share your story or a roadmap to recovery, we are here to walk beside you.

The Next Chapter

Since 2024, Gary has been utilizing his GI Bill to pursue his degree while serving as the President of the Student Veterans Association (SVA). This role is a natural fit, as his true passion lies in serving those who served.

After transitioning from the military in 2008, Gary faced years of frustration attempting to access the benefits he earned. Like many veterans, the repeated denials were devastating and made the process feel insurmountable. Everything changed in 2024 when Gary met Jason, whose encouragement and guidance

finally broke through the red tape. We’ve learned firsthand that there is no shame in asking for help; in fact, it’s the first step toward freedom. Today, Gary’s work with the SVA has reignited his purpose. Through travel, networking, and the mentorship of his director, he is honing his leadership skills, gaining new confidence, and growing in ways he never thought possible. His work with the SVA serves as the ideal transition as Gary pursues his Master of Nonprofit Management. In this role, he thrives under the professional challenges set by his director and the collective support of his team. Whether navigating leadership hurdles or academic milestones, Gary approaches every task with the same discipline he honed in the military—always rising to the challenge and growing stronger through the process.

    REBOOT Combat Recovery: Healing for the Soul

    The battle against trauma doesn’t always end with a discharge or a homecoming. Often, the deepest wounds are the ones that can’t be seen on an X-ray. REBOOT Combat Recovery is a 12-week, peer-led course specifically designed to help service members, veterans, and their families heal from the spiritual and moral "soul wounds" of war.

    Unlike traditional clinical programs, REBOOT takes a multi-faceted approach that bridges the gap between the psychological and the spiritual. By focusing on the root causes of trauma—such as guilt, shame, and loss of identity—this course provides a safe, confidential space to find lasting peace.

    What to Expect:

    A Whole-Family Approach: Trauma impacts the entire home, which is why spouses and loved ones are encouraged to attend and heal together.

    Peer-Led Community: You’ll be surrounded by people who "get it"—veterans and families who have walked the path and found a way forward.

    Practical Tools for Life: From managing anger to restoring relationships, you’ll gain a roadmap for your new mission at home.

    No Cost to You: Thanks to the support of our community, this course is offered for free, often including a family meal and childcare.

    Whether you are still in uniform or have been out for decades, it’s never too late to find your breakthrough.

    REBOOT is an international program, separate from Rooted Recovery Resources. It’s based out of Tennessee. Follow the link to find courses in your area and learn more.
