Designed for Combat Warriors and those who experience PTS, a variety of structured /unstructured activities will teach skills that can reduce symptoms of PTS and improve the lives of the participants. Relaxation/ Stress Reduction can also be found in fishing, yoga, massage, and more. And finally, our 2019 is to open our THE WARRIOR PLACE. A safe haven located in the heart of Frederick. We are working on a new partnership that will offer therapeutic counseling and walk-in services for our Warriors/Frist Responders in need.
