Retrieving Freedom, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to improving the lives of Veterans and children with autism by training and placing Service Dogs at no cost to our clients. 

Unlike a one-size-fits-all approach, our Service Dogs receive tailored training to ensure they can best support their clients. Over more than two years, our dogs are trained to the highest standards at our locations in Waverly, Iowa, and Sedalia, Missouri.

As an accredited Assistance Dogs International member, we take pride in the remarkable companionship and support our Service Dogs provide. Each dog not only assists with everyday tasks but also offers the priceless comfort of unconditional love, truly transforming lives through the powerful human-animal bond.

HomeFront SitRep is a powerful and heartfelt veteran-led podcast dedicated to giving a voice to those who have served—and those who continue to serve behind the scenes. It stands as a platform for real stories, real impact, and real people who genuinely care about the veteran community—not just as statistics, but as brothers, sisters, and family.
This podcast shines a spotlight on the grassroots: the unsung, often-overlooked mom-and-pop nonprofit organizations that are boots-on-the-ground, showing up daily for veterans. These aren’t corporate machines or big-budget operations—they're passionate individuals and small teams who lead with heart, often formed by veterans or military families who know the struggle firsthand. HomeFront SitRep celebrates these organizations that haven’t lost sight of humanity, offering support, services, and community without red tape or fine print.
But the mission doesn’t stop there.
The show also brings in a vibrant cross-section of the veteran community—highlighting veteran-owned businesses, showcasing the creativity of veteran authors and musicians, and laughing alongside veteran comedians. Each episode dives deep into personal journeys, challenges, and triumphs, giving veterans from all walks of life a chance to share their story, their mission, and their voice.
Whether it's a Marine turned mental health advocate, an Army veteran launching a clothing brand, or a Navy vet writing their first book, HomeFront SitRep serves as a rally point for veterans and patriots alike. It’s not just a podcast—it’s a mission to build connection, community, and conversation.
This is where the fight continues—on the home front. This is HomeFront SitRep.
