Meet the People Behind the Mission: Our Team
At GOTURSIX, our team is more than staff and titles—we are Veterans, families, and neighbors committed to hands-on healing and whole-person support.
Our Veterans in Residence bring lived experience, grit, and heart to everything we do. Whether they’re snowbirding in for the season or actively rebuilding from trauma, they remind us daily why this mission matters.
Our Board of Directors includes Veterans, professionals, and community members who guide our vision, keep us accountable, and ensure we stay rooted in purpose. Their leadership makes the mission sustainable—and scalable.
Together, we’re building a Third Space where healing happens through action, community, and connection.
Hellbender Veterans In Residence Program
The Veterans in Residence program at GOTURSIX offers short-term, seasonal residencies for Veterans and their families in the healing hills of the Missouri Ozarks. Whether you're seeking a quiet space to reflect, like Navy Veteran Joe, or recovering from trauma and rebuilding your life, like Army Veteran Miranda, this program is designed to meet you where you are.
Residents live on-site and participate in community-based healing through woodworking, agriculture, disc golf, and neuroscience-informed coaching. This is not permanent housing—it's a supportive, immersive experience that fosters growth, purpose, and post-traumatic resilience.
From snowbirding Veterans to those navigating recovery, our doors are open. You bring your story. We’ll hold space for the next chapter.
