The Future of Disaster Aftercare: CLIMB

Not everyone comes home from a call.
Some don’t come home in their bodies. Some don’t come home in their minds. And some never make it back at all.
CLIMB was built for them—and for the ones still showing up day after day, pretending they’re fine.
CLIMB is a three-tier trauma reset protocol designed by and for first responders, military, veterans, and trauma-exposed professionals. It doesn’t ask you to sit in a circle and “share.” It meets you where you are: in the field, in the fight, in the aftermath.
🚩 Tier 1: Ground Team
DECON & DEFUSE
Reset tents, peer teams, and nervous system tools deployed directly into disaster zones. Cool water. Warm blankets. Tactical resets. No therapy speak—just real humans showing up for their own.
🚩 Tier 2: Reset Station
RECLAIM & REBUILD
Think structured decompression—like a mission-ready wellness reset. Lodging. Peer support. Somatic work. Therapy dogs. Massage. Movement. It’s what comes after the chaos, but before you break.
🚩 Tier 3: Immersion
RISE & RE-ENTER
Clinical-grade trauma reset. Full immersion. Ocean. Mountains. Fire circles. Functional movement. Clinicians and peers working side-by-side to rebuild what the job tried to destroy.
CLIMB isn’t a replacement for therapy. It’s not a rejection of CISM. It’s a reset system—a body-first, mission-forward alternative when talking isn’t cutting it.
We’re building a national peer support network, and we’re starting with Florida, Colorado, and Texas.
If you’re already trained, we want you.
If you’re not trained but you know you’re meant for this work, we’ll train you.
