Հայ Հերոսների Վերականգնողական Կենտրոն
In May 2021, AWHF opened the doors of Armenian Heroes Rehab Center to our disabled veteran in need of physical and mental rehabilitation. At our new rehabilitation center, our heroes receive one-on-one training on how to use their prosthetics.
Membership is free to all our soldiers.
The rehab center is run by Sargis Stepanyan, a special ops soldier who lost both his legs and one arm while retrieving his fallen comrades under enemy fire. Sargis is a part of the AWHF team and provides invaluable support and mentorship to our heroes as he serves as an example of recovery and perseverance. In his role running the rehabilitation center, Sargis is as a personal trainer to our veterans and serves as a key resource for physical and mental rehabilitation.
AWHF’s rehab center is equipped with the latest exercise and physical training equipment tailored to the needs of our heroes with physical disabilities. These machines help our heroes regain their strength and develop specific muscle group that are critical for adapting to prosthetics and returning to a normal life. The facility also houses private treatment rooms where experts work with our heroes to treat specific injuries.
Following the Artsakh War in 2020, the need for physical and mental rehabilitation dramatically increased as thousands of our heroes sustained life-changing injuries.
