Sly "Super Hero" Service Dog

“I have personally experienced and my family has witnessed the positive impact of peer support services in battling mental health, addiction and the struggles of civilian integration. With structured guidance and support from a trusted group of like-minded peers, including my service dog Sly, military/first responder traumas and social integration challenges become manageable. Peer-to-peer engagement provides a path to erase the stigmas, overcome post-traumatic stress and forge a sustainable recovery. I am living proof.”

The journey began in 2017 when a group of "Deuce Four" (1/24 Infantry Regiment) combat buddies, decided to 'hump' across America - step-by-step from Santa Monica, CA to Washington DC arriving at Arlington National Cemetery, November 11, 2017, Veterans Day ... 22 weeks, 2781 Miles, 32 pairs of shoes, 19 blisters, 1 broken foot and immeasurable impact for all involved ... From those grassroots, OUR STORY continues today ... *video from our founding roots:  WALK OF LIFE
