About us

Today more than ever we are experiencing the difficulties that our nations veterans have endured.  So Many of them have been wounded and injured during their service and have had to readjust to their new normal, while many others are struggling from the everlasting effects of war with post-traumatic stress.  Post-traumatic stress is the leading cause of veteran suicide.  In fact, the Veterans Administration notes that one veteran commits suicide every 65 minutes.  This does not include the suicide attempts that are much more frequent.  This is often because these veterans are experiencing life unstructured because they are having problems adapting back into the civilian communities. Because of this many veterans end up on the streets homeless, addicted to drugs or alcohol, incarcerated and are more likely to become a suicide statistic. 


Our founder Garry Morfit a Vietnam Veteran himself, knew he had to do something to offset this pattern.  He knew that these veterans needed a better homecoming than the Vietnam Veterans received.  In 2005 he brought his 42-foot Sail/Trawling vessel the “Hot Ruddered Bum” to Ketchikan, Alaska and instantly knew this was the place where he could help bridge the gap and mentor veterans.  In 2007 Garry’s dream came to fruition and Healing Towers was created.  We are now in our 15th year fulfilling his dream of “Being Kind to Each Other” and the mission has been ingrained into a mentor network to be created that will be a lasting relationship for a lifetime.
