Approximately 11-20% of military veterans who served in Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom experience PTSD in a given year. The impact of combat exposure can have lasting effects on mental health, emphasizing the critical need for support and resources.

PTSD is not confined to veterans or specific regions. It can affect anyone who has experienced trauma, including survivors of natural disasters, accidents, or interpersonal violence. It is even common in first responders. The global reach of PTSD highlights the importance of awareness and mental health issues on a broader scale

Emerging research suggests that engaging in outdoor activities, such as the off-road adventures our organization promotes, can be a powerful therapeutic tool for individuals with PTSD. The adrenaline, camaraderie, and connection with nature inherent in such activities contribute positively to mental well-being, offering an alternative approach to traditional forms of therapy.
