The bravery and heroism of our veterans, active duty and first responders must be recognized and respected. Freedom Sailing sees this as a critical mission that must be addressed.
Through our Open S.E.A.S. program, Freedom Sailing endeavors to meet the social, emotional, and cognitive needs of these men and women. Through structured team building and leadership activities tied to learning about sailing, we offer a way to redirect feelings of isolation and loss that often trigger the hidden signs of living with PTSD such as depression, substance abuse, violence, and potentially suicidal thoughts.
Our programming activities take place outdoors and focuses on many aspects of mindfulness therapy. Central to our programming is the camaraderie of learning about sailing a vessel. Utilizing person-centered peer-to-peer contact, Freedom Sailing advantages the discipline, structure, and camaraderie our veterans are accustomed to and leverages that understanding to help promote a rebuilding of the individual person through sailing.
There are several ways to join us and be a part of the Freedom Sailing team.
