We are committed to the future and well being of our veterans and first responders.
The Permission to Start Dreaming Foundation is committed to finding the best tools and training to enhance the mind, body and spiritual wellbeing of our nation’s veterans, first responders and their family members. We believe they should be provided the very best programs that help restore their lives and overcome the trauma they face while serving their country and communities.
Warrior PATHH in the Pacific Northwest
The Permission To Start Dreaming Foundation has brought Warrior PATHH training to our community here in the Pacific Northwest, in partnership with the Avalon Action Alliance. Our partnership with them has served to magnify our strength and resolve in providing support for our veterans and first responders, both advancing our reach and accelerating our progress potential significantly. We now offer PATHH programs in the PNW for both male and female combat veterans, active-duty personnel, and first responders – and no clinical diagnosis of any kind is required to attend. Warrior PATHH is designed to harness the power of the first responder’s training and field experience, and the veteran’s military training and combat experience, to enable our warriors to unlock their remarkable potential at home. Once that potential is unlocked, the positive ripple effects through their families and our communities are profound. Our commitment to this training is pinned upon our knowledge that trauma does not need to diminish vitality or cause our veterans and first responders to live a diminished life.

The latest in Boulder Crest Foundation’s “Struggle to Strength” Film Series, “Breakthrough” tells the story of how we can use struggle to catapult ourselves into growth and transformation. Boulder Crest launched this film series in an effort to raise awareness of “the possibility of thriving – not just surviving – after trauma.” And this latest film is a profound reminder that we all carry burdens, and the lifelong practice we must undergo “as we transform struggle into strength, hope, and growth.”
Below this video, you can also watch the first and second installments in Boulder Crest’s film series, “On Duty” and “Reborn” and we encourage you to learn more about Boulder Crest and their full library of resources HERE
