United Badges of Honor

and women who have sacrificed or compromised their lives in the line of duty or in the 9/11 attacks. All of these individuals are heroes and should be honored for their selfless commitment to serving our country and communities. Since the events of 9/11, over a million U.S. service members have been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, in the war against terrorism. Currently the U.S. has nearly 140,000 troops still deployed. The DOD estimates that 360,000 returning service members suffer from Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and over 31,000 have sustained other serious injuries. In addition to these injuries many will suffer with anger management, depression & substance abuse issues. For many of our military personnel, not only do they make selfless sacrifice to defend our country, but many of these individuals return home to serve as police officers, firefighters or other first responders. As these men and women in uniform continue their efforts to keep us safe, it is crucial that ALL Badges unite together and help our very own brothers and sisters in need. Every day we are blessed to live in a free land where someone is always looking out for our safety. Peace and freedom are something we don’t have to worry about because it has already been fought for and earned by our armed forces at home and abroad. The men and women who work long hours in order to ensure our safety on a daily basis have earned the respect of a grateful nation. Miami’s United Badges of Honor’s goal is to unite, honor and help the men and women in uniform that seek or require assistance with in-line duty injuries; with our focus being on reducing stress and suicide amongst our veterans, military and first responder personnel, by bringing ALL Badges; Police, Fire, EMS, FBI, ATF, CBP, USCG and Military Together. Our objective is to inspire and mobilize the military and first responder community to do our part to help our brothers and sisters that risk their lives daily for our freedom. We seek to lift the spirits and meet the evolving needs of the US Military and First Responder communities and provide volunteer opportunities for American’s to express their appreciation to all who serve our Nation and Communities. Miami’s United Badges of Honor is dedicated to supporting the physical, mental and spiritual wellness of our Nation’s Heroes. We believe with all our hearts that by giving them the respect and honor rightfully due them we will be able to give them the hope of a promising future. In doing this we will ensure that all who have worn the “Uniform” will be an instant reminder to all Americans that a Hero stands before us… one of courage, strength and love for their country and whether their injuries are visible or not…. We will never forget… all gave some and some gave all!!! Join us and help us help those who protect us daily- Our Heroes!
