Let’s Talk About It
We have one goal, remove the stigma attached to PTSD while decreasing suicides amongst those struggling with Mental Health.
Community Events
The Brake the Stigma Car Show & Wellness Expo draws hundreds of vehicles, exhibits, and vendors, along with thousands of participants and spectators to each show. Cars4Awareness also hosts on and off-road rallies consisting of scenic drives lasting one or two days. These rallies combined with peer to peer counseling are a therapeutic escape providing a sense of freedom and fun.
Teal Flag Project
Invisible wounds such as Post-traumatic stress disorder more than often go unnoticed. Affecting not only the individual, but the loved ones surrounding them, most do not understand how to cope. Statistically leading to suicide, violence, or divorce. This flag is donated to spread awareness as well as to provide hope, support, and a sense of belonging to those who struggle with PTSD and related challenges. Learn more about this program and apply for your flag today.
Life With PTSD Blog
What started as a way of self-healing and to figure out answers turned into a blog which helped others figure out what was not only going on with them, but also assisted them in healing and solving relationship and behavioral problems. Beginning with random thoughts and questions later developed into more detailed research. After just a few years, this blog became the foundation for developing Cars4Awareness. This blog changed not only his life, but the life of others.
