Roll Out PTSD started as an idea in 2017. Michael Ledford, founder and combat veteran of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars; that all veterans, specifically combat veterans like himself essentially need a specific type of healing. Our mission is to create or rebuild the sense of family and community, to feel welcomed and loved once again, and to break with the painful reality of trauma caused by extremely distressing experiences, which can significantly deteriorate the quality of life and pursuit of happiness. The program focuses on providing veterans with a safe, exciting, and effective space to facilitate the idea of really living with trauma.
The goal is to alleviate and organize individuals, their families, and any person suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder to cope and maintain a healthy lifestyle, enjoy interactions with other individuals, and have fun. Based in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, we offer a comprehensive, three-phase program that helps veterans regain a sense of purpose, rebuild their confidence, and foster positive life experiences. Through our innovative “Reverse Basic Training” approach to connect veterans with the resources available to them, community projects, and outdoor adventures, we empower veterans to navigate civilian life with the support they need.
“Roll Out PTSD is ultimately; veterans working together to heal and live with a purpose, going back into our elements to help those in need. Comradery in Life is our motto. Our mission is to bring awareness of PTSD, which is as real as any visible injury.”
