Sponsor and organize recreational therapy activities that foster a sense of well-being, offer encouragement, and assist the service member’s rehabilitation and recovery from wounds or injuries suffered in the line of duty.

Develop a cadre of USASOC personnel (both recovering and volunteers) that mentor, motivate and encourage through example other wounded soldiers in their recovery through the Recreational Therapy Program.

Recreational therapy program will be diverse (e.g., SCUBA, fishing, white water rafting, climbing, etc…)
