Your veteran program is really a gift of life to me. Never have I been so moved; the bond that we feel for the short time we are together is amazing. I cannot tell you what all of us who are lucky enough to go on your adventures think of all the people who work so hard behind the scenes. Just to say thank you is not really enough. THANK YOU!

Through a generous grant, Outward Bound for Veterans offers fully funded Outward Bound wilderness expeditions exclusively for returned service members and recent veterans of Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. This program is designed to create a community for veterans; to help thousands of returning service members and recent veterans readjust to life at home through powerful wilderness courses that draw on the healing benefit of teamwork and challenge. 52 veterans completed their Outward Bound experience on pulling boats in Florida Bay this winter.
