Advisory: Participants for the postponed Spring Rite of Return have been rescheduled for the Fall Rite of Return in response to COVID-19.

Please sign up below to join the waitlist for the Fall 2020 Rite of Return or Sign up or please consider the Summer 2020 Rite of Return. It is very important to join the waitlist as it demonstrates demand to hold more ceremonies and often there are life circumstances where a participant will not be able to claim their seat, and you will get the call!

The Rite of Return is a journey to the heart of who you are called to be after military service. Separated from society, in solidarity and solitude, cross the threshold to answer Who Am I? What’s My Purpose? Where do I Belong?   

This warrior-led ceremony has proven to drastically reduce the symptoms of PTS, compassion fatigue, moral injury, and suicidal ideation by embracing all aspects of our human nature, identity, and experience. The Rite of Return is available to Current and Prior Military Service Members, Spouses, Gold Star Families (18+), and Dependent Survivors of Veteran Suicide.
