COVR builds a community of camaraderie and support for combat veterans of all ages and eras at our 19-acre working farm. We offer education, mentoring, and therapeutic opportunities in farming, ranching, and gardening, as well as structured and unstructured opportunities for peer support. The Ranch is a hub that provides resources and builds a network of support for local veterans.
COVR offers an environment where veterans experience an immediate sense of belonging and find meaningful ways to contribute to a shared community. The ranch facilitates positive post-military service transitions for veterans that foster post-traumatic growth and restore life purpose and meaning. Volunteer opportunities, special projects and programs in the beautiful 19-acre Ranch setting bring veterans from as far as La Pine and Prineville to work together, share a meal, and form meaningful peer relationships that improve their lives and well-being. It is this social support that truly heals, prevents suicide and homelessness, and takes veterans beyond just surviving to lives of purpose and thriving.
