SPARTA The SPARTA Project is a 5 day retreat for warriors, veterans and first responders. We heal the spiritual and moral wounds of war, trauma, and violence.

The SPARTA Project is a 501c3 nonprofit organization. We are one of the nation's leading programs for treating warriors with spiritual and moral wounds, PTS(D) and suicidal ideology. The Mission:
To transform the stress and trauma caused by war and violence into resiliency, empowerment, personal growth, individual greatness in order to create an EPIDEMIC OF HOPE©! Spiritual and Moral Wounds:
It's SPARTA's belief that traditional methods of healing are not enough. Warriors need something different than drugs to heal the spiritual and moral wounds caused by trauma and war. To this end, SPARTA delivers state-of-the-art programs that transform PTS(D), and trauma into acceptance, growth, and resiliency. All trauma, be it from war or other life-threatening experiences, creates a spiritual wound. Identifying and properly treating the spiritual wound created by trauma is essential to the healing process. Spiritual and moral wounds can lead to conditions of hopelessness, desperation, and isolation. Our goal is to transform these very wounds into personal growth and empowerment in order to create an EPIDEMIC OF HOPE©! How SPARTA heals PTS(D):
Post Traumatic Stress (PTS) is a result of exposure to traumatic events such as war, violence, injury, and death. Exposure to these events can train the autonomic nervous system (body, brain, and mind) to be in a constant state of stress i.e. fight or flight. Most people who experience symptoms of PTS(D) do not know that their own brains have been changed by stress (Brain Change AKA Amygdala hijack). SPARTA educates participants on how the body, brain, and mind are trained into a constant state of stress and the common behaviors associated with a condition. We then provide specific tools and techniques to retrain the body, brain, and mind into rest, relaxation, and peacefulness. How SPARTA heals Suicidal Ideology:
Suicide (or a suicidal ideology) is a condition of hopelessness. Hopelessness cannot be medicated away with pills. Hopelessness is cured by the right relationships in one's life combined with the proper perspective and correct information. SPARTA’s clinical team members are the right relationships; they are professional who understand the downward spiral that leads to hopelessness and they are highly skilled at empowering participants with the right relationships, perspective, and information to find a new sense of purpose in their lives. Together we are the EPIDEMIC OF HOPE! If you or someone you love is suffering from PTS(D), hopelessness, and or suicidal ideology PLEASE CONTACT US TODAY.

🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day from The Sparta Project 🇺🇸

Today, we honor the birth of a nation founded on sacrifice, courage, and the unshakable will to fight for freedom. At The Sparta Project, we are proud to walk alongside the warriors who have carried that legacy forward—our veterans and first responders.

This year, our team has stood shoulder to shoulder with our veterans and first responders who continue to battle the unseen wounds of service. Through every retreat, every moment of growth, and every step toward healing—we are reminded that true freedom isn’t just about independence from tyranny, but from the pain and trauma that follow us home.

To those who serve, have served, and continue to serve in every capacity—thank you. We see you. We stand with you. And we’re honored to be a part of your fight.

Enjoy this day with purpose, pride, and gratitude.

🛡️ Healing Through Purpose.

🌟 At Operation Healing Heroes, we're proud to support The Sparta Project, a powerful healing modality for our U.S. Military veterans and first responders battling PTSD. 🇺🇸

The Sparta Project offers week-long cohort retreats, providing a peer-centered approach to healing through equine therapy, mythopoetic experiences, and time in nature. From fly-fishing to tackling ropes courses and building connections with horses, these retreats foster resilience and recovery. 🐎🌲

We’re honored to offer these transformative experiences at no cost to veterans in need. Check out these moments from a recent retreat, capturing the strength and connection that define The Sparta Project. 💪❤️

“I feel like a kid on Christmas morning, opening the box of fly fishing gear and goodies from Thorne Bros.

Thorne Bros wholly sponsors the fly fishing portion of the SPARTA curriculum. Because of their generosity—I am able to teach these Veterans and First Responders how to fly fish, and how to cultivate peace on the water. Each Sparta participant is fully equipped with a brand new 9ft 6wt fly rod setup, flies, and gear

Today—I introduced them to their new equipment, they learned basic casting, and they learned to tie knots

Tomorrow—we will discuss tactics and basic rigs, then do more casting practice

Thursday—we will hit the trout water and I will turn them loose, to apply what they’ve learned

Each day gets brighter than the last

More tools for their toolboxes

Hope is restored

Lives change

I’m honored to be a part of it! 🇺🇸👊”

Don’t wait.
Don’t worry about what others might think.

The awareness level has never been higher, but we (The fire service) has a long ways to go.

Firefighters deserve to get help without shame and do their families.

🚒 Never be afraid to ask for help. You are never alone; you are a Firefighter. 🥰
