The Power of the Outdoors: Veteran Resilience and Family Connection
January 14
12:00 MST · 11:00 PST · 2:00 EST
Veterans and military families face unique stressors tied to service, transition, reintegration, and maintaining connection during periods of change. Outdoor recreation programs have emerged as a powerful platform for strengthening relationships, improving well-being, and rebuilding the sense of belonging that many service members and families lose after leaving the military.
This webinar brings together national leaders from Outward Bound, Blue Star Families, and Huts for Vets to explore how nature-based programming supports veterans and families by improving communication, reinforcing trust, reducing stress, and building resilience.
