VetsBoats:

VetsBoats is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded and led by military veterans, dedicated to restoring health, well‑being, and community for those living with PTSD, traumatic injuries, addiction, and isolation. We believe in the transformative power of sailing and maritime work as therapeutic tools—an approach grounded in research and decades of lived experience on the water.
Our mission is to deliver measurable improvements in veterans’ health, connection, and sense of purpose. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, we now operate as a growing national network serving veterans and their families through local chapters, affiliates, and partner fleets.
