Advocating for Veterans Access to the Outdoors Since 2012
Our Vision
To enable access to outdoor adjunct therapies for all Veterans in need.
Our Mission
Promote the benefits of outdoor adjunct therapy for Veterans by delivering research and advocacy, while driving access and proving efficacy, and perpetuating the well-being of our public lands.
Who We Are
Veterans’ Outdoor Advocacy Group is a 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) organization that is founded on increasing our Veterans' well being by promoting the power of outdoor therapy as an adjunct treatment to traditional approaches around mental health. VOAG has emerged as a leader in the Veteran non-profit space through successful legislative efforts and the development of the VOAG Coalition. Our team has years of experience in leading outdoor therapy programming.
