H2O is an Adventure Based Peer Support Program using Outdoor Activities to serve wounded veterans. H2O has joined NAUI!

TAKING HEALING TO A DEEPER LEVEL

HEALING TOGETHER THROUGH SCUBA. Our Veteran Scuba Programs are designed by veterans and their dependents - for veterans and their dependents. Through three separate paths we encourage learning, continued education, skill development, and healing all while building a healthy and engaging community around the mission of Veterans Recovery Resources. We are excited to

announce that beginning Feb 2023 those with GI Bill eligibility will have the opportunity to use their benefits to purse their scuba certifications all the way up to Instructor! For those without GI Bill do not worry, at H2O we firmly believe that cost should never be a barrier from participating and learning what scuba diving can do for your mental and physical health. Our staff will work with you to find out what works best for you so that you can take part in all H2O programs.

We just wrapped up an incredible NAUI TRY SCUBA event in Gulf Shores at the Bodenhamer Community Center pool.

We had 8 veterans and family members gear up, get in the water, and experience SCUBA for the very first time—facing fears, building confidence, and finding a new love for “blowing bubbles” beneath the surface. It was amazing to watch those moments of courage turn into smiles and high-fives.

Helping 2 Overcome is part of the continuum of care at Vets Recover in Mobile AL and we are all about creating opportunities for connection, recovery, and growth through new experiences like this. We’ve got classes and more events coming up in the months ahead, so follow this page for updates and be ready when we announce the next chance to jump in.
