Blind Outdoor Mentoring Program

The GEO Blind Mentoring Program is our community support and outreach initiative. To fully experience the outdoors, participants must complete our specialized training programs (currently in development). Blind and Visually Impaired individuals, as well as Gold Star Kids, will be paired with a veteran or first responder mentor who will guide them through their outdoor adventures. Apply for our training program online. All instruction will be completed online with some field dates required. Discover more about this program below.
