GratitudeAmerica, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to champion an alliance of service and support organizations that partner to provide comprehensive community resources for veterans, their families, and the families of the fallen. While Gratitude America’s main mission is to connect service and support organizations with our military heroes and their families, we also perform outreach activities such as the retreats and community forums located at the Town of Marineland in Northeast Florida. Visit www.gratitudeamerica.org for more information.
GratitudeAmerica offers retreat programs that use integrative approaches to assist participants affected by deployment exposure, such as Post Traumatic Stress and Traumatic Brain Injury, and to connect warriors to resources through a network of community partners. These American heroes are owed a debt that can never fully be repaid, but GratitudeAmerica is passionate about making a difference in their lives.
