Race Camp.

- a psychological skills training program developed by Veterans for Veterans.

In collaboration Nova Southeastern University and Full Send Sims we have developed a program to change the way mental health is addressed in our participants.

Using world class racing simulators as a stress inoculation tool, and psychologists to train in self regulation like diaphragmatic breathing.

The racing sim allows us to gradually make it more and more difficult to use their techniques making them more and more proficient.

History

Founded in 2014 to help transitioning service members

Started by supporting Higher Education (NSU, Broward College, Florida Atlantic University), Comprehensive Community Services (Mission United) , and Entrepreneurship by issuing grants

TVT Race Experience started in Miami to engage the Veteran Community - and it worked!!!

By the fourth event (9/11 @ Homestead-Miami Speedway), TVT had hosted thousands of veterans and families, giving ride-a-longs, oering community resources, and issuing various grants to community organizations.

With the invaluable support of national sponsors, TVT-RE has grown from a local initiative to a national movement. Thanks to the collective eorts of our growing community, we have expanded our reach across the country, hosting events at prestigious tracks like Laguna Seca, New Jersey, and Road Atlanta.

TVT-RE has included road course racing, NASCAR, o-road/desert racing, boat rallies, drift cars, sky diving, sim racing, F1, and many other experiences.

In 2019, TVT oered the US Army a Race Experience at Fort Campbell, giving hundreds of race experiences to soldiers.

In 2024, TVT hosted the largest 3-day military motorsports event on Fort Liberty - 2300 soldiers and families were served.
