After owning SkyRose Ranch for several years, Mr. Hughes became aware that 23 US veterans were dying by suicide each and every day.  As a result he teamed up with Chad Robichaux, Founder of the Mighty Oaks Warrior Project, and rebuilt the lodge that a previous owner had built and had fallen into disrepair. Mighty Oaks and Serving USA now host over 22 retreats each year ministering to not only combat vets but also first responders and wives of both. To date over 3,000 men and women have come to SRR for ministry and healing and stay at the lodge for free for up to one week.  SRR hosts 22 sessions a year.
