Veteran's Active Recreation Program - TasmaniaServed your country and now looking for your next challenge or career?
In conjunction with the Tasmanian State Government, Point Assist is proud to bring you the Veteran’s Active Recreation Program, supporting the health and well-being of returned service personnel.
Created for veterans by veterans, this four-year program has delivered a series of 5-day small group events providing unique outdoor experiences and career pathways in the adventure and ecotourism industry.
Under the guidance of veteran mentors, participants will utilise the skills and experience gained throughout their military careers to plan and complete a remote mountain trek in the Tasmanian wilderness.
Point Assist understands that the journey of a returned service person is complex. Our creative and practical hands-on program takes the discipline, motivation and initiative learned in the ADF, to provide responsibility, challenge, connection and accomplishment, the very things veterans often lose and miss post military.
These ‘adventure’ style events place participants firmly in the driver’s seat of their own experience, the very environments where veterans thrive. With the support provided through our program we will help participants:
• Find physical and psychological focus
• Encourage self-reflection
• Foster self-belief
• Develop new networks
• Explore new career pathways and employment opportunities
• Discover how unique military skills and experience are directly transferable to the civilian world
• Create purpose and fulfilment
