Programs

At Heroes Healing Homestead, we understand the profound impact that working with one's hands and building something from scratch can have on a person's mental and emotional wellbeing. That's why we're proud to offer our unique Homesteading program designed specifically for veterans.

​

Led by Atz Kilcher, a Vietnam veteran deeply committed to supporting his fellow servicemen and women, Heroes Healing Homestead provides veterans with the opportunity to learn valuable skills while fostering a sense of community and purpose. Our program focuses on building a foundation for personal growth and transformation, helping veterans heal and find peace through teamwork and connection.

​

Located in the breathtaking Alaskan wilderness, our program offers veterans a chance to disconnect from the stresses of everyday life and reconnect with nature. Through hands-on experiences like felling trees, milling lumber, and creating a homestead from raw land, veterans not only learn practical skills but also experience the healing power of nature firsthand.

​

Numerous studies have shown the positive impact of nature on mental health, and at Heroes Healing Homestead, we are privileged to provide veterans with the opportunity to experience this firsthand. Our immersive program allows veterans to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and find inner peace in the serene beauty of the Alaskan wilderness.
