First Responders

Law enforcement, firefighters, EMTs, and paramedics carry a unique burden. Operation Restore provides a space to decompress and connect.

Our Story

Operation Restore was founded by Courtney Patti who recognized a critical need among veterans, first responders, and their families. Too often, effective wellness programs and supportive services remain out of reach due to financial barriers or limited coverage. In response, Operation Restore was founded to create greater access to healing and support. Through equine-assisted programs, community partnerships, and wellness initiatives, Operation Restore is committed to fostering healing, connection, and resilience.
