IS THIS PROGRAM FOR YOU?
Built for Those Who Would Benefit Most
At this time, MVP is accepting inquiries from Utah-based veterans and their families. Utah veteran inquiries will be reviewed and considered for program participation.
YOU BELONG HERE IF
MVP programs are designed for U.S. military veterans living with a service-connected injury, illness, or disability — visible or invisible — who are ready to step into a supportive, structured outdoor experience alongside a guest of their choosing. If you're seeking healing, genuine connection, and community with others who understand, this program was built for you.
A NOTE ON FIT
MVP is an intentional, structured program — not a resort retreat or leisure getaway. It's purpose-built for veterans who would genuinely benefit from time in a restorative, community-driven environment. If you're fully well and looking for a mountain vacation, this may not be the right fit — and that's okay. Our goal is to serve those for whom this experience will matter most.
REQUIREMENTS
- You are a U.S. military veteran
- You have a service-connected injury, illness, or disability
- You can provide documentation of service and disability
- You are able to participate in a multi-day group program (adaptive equipment provided)
