• The Drift Forward Project is a non-profit organization helping first responders living with post-traumatic stress to reconnect with themselves and their community through the therapeutic practice of fly fishing. Our programs promote recovery, build resilience and provide long-term peer support for those who have dedicated their lives to helping others

  • Research shows that nature-based recreational therapy, such as fly fishing, has measurable benefits for individuals with PTSD. By integrating evidence-informed practices with peer support, our program restores the well-being of first responders

  • Healing happens together.
    There are many ways to be part of The Drift Forward Project — whether you’re a first responder seeking support, a volunteer ready to lend a hand, or a sponsor who believes in giving back to those who serve our communities
