Scars & Stripes 1776

Scars & Stripes 1776 S&S is a 501(c)(3) charity dedicated to raising awareness for Veteran and First Responder mental health. So Others May Ride! πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Through Throttle Therapy, we’ve built a strong, supportive community where healing and connection happen one ride at a time. Scars and Stripes 1776 is a 501c3 charity founded by Veterans and First Responders who understand the sacrifices made in the line of duty. Our organization is dedicated to supporting and uplifting those who serve our country and communities. We foster an environment that ack

nowledges the physical and mental toll of a life devoted to service and aims to erase the stigma surrounding mental health. At Scars and Stripes 1776, we recognize the unique challenges faced by Military personnel, Police, Firefighters, EMS, Corrections officers, Nurses, and 911 Dispatchers. Our mission is to unite this community and provide avenues for support that cater to individual needs, as standard approaches might not resonate with everyone. We accomplish this through our charity ride days and "Throttle Therapy" program. Throttle Therapy is riding motorcycles, dirt bikes, ATVs, or other vehicles as a form of mental and emotional healing. It provides a sense of freedom, focus, and adrenaline that helps clear the mind, reduce stress, and build camaraderie among riders. For many Veterans and First Responders, Throttle Therapy is more than just a ride; it's a way to reconnect, process emotions, and find support within a like-minded community. We are committed to preventing the loss of more lives to su***de among our brave Veterans and First Responders than those lost in the line of duty. We focus on raising awareness, fostering understanding, and encouraging individuals to seek the help they need without fear or hesitation. By supporting or joining Scars and Stripes 1776, you become part of a movement that honors the sacrifices of those who serve while striving to prevent further loss. Together, we endeavor to ensure that our Military Veterans, First Responders, and their families survive and thrive.

Awesome story about a Doc who has found healing through riding! Strong work Motorcycle Missions for sharing this story and all that you do! πŸ‘πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‘Š

Retired U.S. Army Master Sergeant Alan 'Doc' Cotton spent 23 years of active duty service as a medic with four combat tours. After his final tour he returned home to his family, hoping life would return to normal. Instead, Doc found himself discovering a new way of life, living and coping with chronic PTSD...until a friend introduced him to motorcycles. Fast forward 15 years, Doc races motorcycles and is the successful owner of 812 Suspension Design in Round Rock, TX. This is his story of triumph over his PTSD diagnosis and how motorcycles have not only helped him survive, but have helped him thrive. Watch our documentary on his journey with PTSD on our You Tube Channel. https://youtu.be/otyRZgpZX28?si=yjlvgxZoqe_aIQPl
