ABOUT HEROIC MEN
Men like us leave no man behind.
If Christ drops everything to rescue every lone sheep, we do too. We're calling men to reclaim strength, joy, and purpose in life, no matter how hard it is. You're alive for a reason. A heroic man knows he is wanted by God, and we strengthen men to live.

Regional Leaders
Regional leaders develop and manage the various areas across North America. They help mobilize men on the ground across their individual regions, working closely with CMLA executive leadership. Regional leaders identify leaders in their regions and help them develop leadership teams. Their goal is to establish active men's ministries in every diocese and parish. Regional leaders provide essential leadership guidance and resources to help state and diocesan leaders.

Brotherhood calls men off the sidelines and into the adventure of our lives.

Heroic Men strengthens men to be sons of God, seek heroism, and leave no man behind.
In 2018, six men sought to help men grow closer to Christ. Today, this has become a global mission to help build and grow ministries for men in parishes and dioceses worldwide.
Heroic Men supports more than 100 men’s conferences in North America. We impact tens of thousands of men by equipping them with resources to build brotherhood in their parishes.
Together, we can reach more men who are thirsting for faith‒filled brotherhood, so that we can answer the call to seek heroism.
