What Is the Warrior Healing Center? A Place Where Veterans Heal, Connect, and Thrive

Located in Sierra Vista, Arizona, the Warrior Healing Center (WHC) is more than just a nonprofit—it’s a grass-roots, community-owned space for veterans seeking real, lasting support. Whether you’ve served in Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, or stateside, the WHC is here to help veterans transition from surviving to thriving.

A Safe Haven for Veterans in Cochise County

Cochise County has one of the highest populations of veterans per capita in Arizona, and the Warrior Healing Center proudly serves as a hub for veteran services, camaraderie, and healing. Our mission is simple: we don’t just support veterans—we fight for them.

This all-volunteer organization is where you can find help with:

  • VA disability benefits and claims assistance

  • Mental health resources and peer-to-peer support

  • Veteran employment programs and resume coaching

  • Food pantry, housing help, and emergency relief

  • A sense of community you can count on

Healing the Soul, Not Just the Symptoms

On average, 22 veterans die by suicide every single day. Since 2001, that adds up to more than 30,000 American heroes lost—not to war, but to the invisible wounds of service. The Warrior Healing Center exists to change that.

We aren’t a government agency. We’re not a medical facility. We’re something different—a grass-roots coalition of veteran-owned organizations, nonprofits, and volunteers dedicated to healing the soul and restoring purpose.

Who Runs the Warrior Healing Center?

The center is operated by veterans, military spouses, and people who truly understand the military lifestyle. From deployments to PCS moves, to navigating the confusing VA process, our team has lived it—and now volunteers their time to help others.

It’s this all-volunteer model that gives the WHC its heart. No one is here for a paycheck. We’re here for each other.

What Makes WHC Different?

1. 30+ Veteran Service Organizations Under One Roof
WHC hosts over 30 mission-driven groups—many of them grass-roots efforts led by fellow veterans. That means less red tape, faster answers, and fewer hoops to jump through.

2. 100% Community-Owned and Funded
We’re proud to say WHC is community owned, not government-run. We rely on local donors, partnerships, sponsorships, and volunteer power to make this mission work.

3. Walk-In Support
No appointment necessary. Walk in, grab a coffee, and talk to someone who gets it. Our all-volunteer staff is ready when you are.

4. Events That Rebuild Purpose
From our Stand Up 4 Freedom Street Fair to Trunk or Treat and our upcoming 5K fundraiser, our grass-roots eventsare designed to reconnect veterans with their community and purpose.

Real Stats, Real Impact

Since January 2022, more than 2,000 veterans have completed intake. We’ve responded to over 5,000 assistance requests, helped veterans claim millions in VA benefits, and hosted dozens of free community events—all powered by our volunteers and local support.

How You Can Get Involved

There’s always room for more help. Whether you're a veteran, a spouse, a family member, or someone who just cares about the cause, you can join our all-volunteer network.

Here’s how:

  • Donate to support local, community-owned services

  • Volunteer your time or skills

  • Sponsor one of our grass-roots events

  • Spread the word—online and in person

492nd Special Operations Wing at Davis-Monthan: Impact on Sierra Vista & Fort Huachuca Airspace

-
Image
  The 492nd Special Operations Wing Is Coming to Davis-Monthan—Here’s What It Means for Us in Southeastern Arizona Davis-Monthan Air Force Base is about to look a little different. Tucson is getting ready to welcome the 492nd Special Operations Wing (492 SOW), a unit with roots going all the way back to World War II. And while this is a big shift for the Air Force, it also has some ripple effects down here in Cochise County —yes, even for folks around Fort Huachuca and Sierra Vista . A Quick Look Back The 492nd’s story starts in WWII as the 492nd Bombardment Group . They flew into combat in May of 1944 and suffered some of the heaviest bomber losses in the European Theater. After being pulled from those missions, the group shifted into special operations for the rest of the war. Fast-forward a few decades, and the modern wing has been at Hurlburt Field, Florida, training and supporting Air Force Special Operations Command . Why the Move to Tucson? In 2023, the Air Force annou...

BlackStar Orbital Lands in Sierra Vista: Building Spaceplanes at Our Airport

-
Image
Space has always felt far away, until now. Sierra Vista is officially on the map for the next generation of space technology with BlackStar Orbital choosing our municipal airport as home base for its new $7.1 million spacecraft manufacturing and test facility. By 2026, this project is expected to bring at least 50 high-wage aerospace jobs right here to our city. That’s not just a headline, it’s a huge deal for our community, our local economy, and for families looking for stable, future-focused careers in Southern Arizona. What BlackStar Orbital Does  BlackStar Orbital isn’t building just another satellite. Their flagship project, the SpaceDrone , is part spaceplane and part satellite bus. Think of it as a reusable “drone for space” that launches like a small satellite, conducts missions in orbit like earth observation, communications, or defense ISR, then returns to Earth and lands on a runway for refurbishment and reuse. Instead of burning up in the atmosphere like most satell...
