Outdoor Mindset Guide Program

OM’s main program matches newly-diagnosed members facing neurological challenges (Travelers) 1-On-1 with someone who has already gone the distance facing a similar diagnosis, knows the ropes and loves the same outdoor activities (Guides). We link Supporters (spouses, parents, children and other family members and friends) with someone like them as well. These personal connections inspire hope, instill passion for maintaining active outdoor lives and enable our Travelers to receive support from people uniquely familiar with their experience.

Travelers (newly-diagnosed and looking for a Guide) & Supporters - We're a brand new organization and just getting started. We're busting our butts to find as many Guides possible, but please be aware that we may not be able to match you with someone right now. Register now and we'll be in touch as soon as possible. In the meantime, we're sending positive vibes your way. Please join us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter to stay connected. Don't worry, this matching delay is only 'temporal'. That's a brain joke...

Potential Guides (future inspirations to others) - First of all, you rock. Thanks for your interest in giving back to others by leaning on your experience. Register now knowing that this influential role will change your life! Just as cool, you get to call yourself a Guide. Fancy...

We’re new and grass-roots, so our biggest focus right now is to find OM Guides. Please spread the word!

Online Community - Coming Soon
We’re currently working to build an online community that will:
Embrace our Guide program and inspire our members to get outside and stay healthy
Act as a forum to connect people based on their diagnosis and outdoor interests
Promote a support network by encouraging sharing experiences, resources, and information
Profile inspiring individuals
Regional Events - Coming Soon
We will encourage and support regional events to strengthen connections, inspire people to get outside.......and to have a good time.
Adventure Programs - Coming Soon
Part of our strategic plan (fancy board room term) includes working with our partners to offer adventure programs that promote camaraderie and healing of the body, mind and spirit. Who the heck doesn’t want to take a trip to New Zealand, hit the slopes, slay some fish, cruise a mountain bike in the Rockies, etc.
