2019 USA TOUR JUNE - JULY

WHAT IS RIDE 4 RELIEF? Ride 4 Relief is a nationwide tour of press conferences taking place in police in fire departments focused on PTSD in an effort to reduce first responder suicide and increase health and wellness support within the departments of our police and fire fighters across the United States of America. Jeff Shepard recently made world news last summer during JUNE PTSD Awareness month as he rode his motorcycle from Seattle to Virginia telling his story in every major city on the way. The tour helps to educate our communities within and around those who risk their lives daily to keep us safe. With an intimate approach, Shepard works with each department in every city to coordinate content shared with the media about the efforts departments are making to be leaders in advocating for PTSD support.
