Faith, Hope, Love Outdoors

The Mississippi Department of Rehabilitation Services (MDRS) provides life-changing opportunities for independence to individuals with disabilities. Through a partnership with Faith, Hope, Love Outdoor Ministry and funding from the TBI/SCI Trust Fund, MDRS made it possible for Brock, who has a traumatic brain or spinal cord injury, to go hunting for the first time.

Using specialized adaptive hunting equipment, Brock and others with similar conditions were able to safely participate in the sport. The technology includes a mounted rifle controlled by a remote and a screen for aiming, allowing individuals with limited mobility to independently harvest an animal.

This program offers more than just an outdoor experience—it helps participants regain confidence, adapt to new challenges, and find joy in activities they once thought impossible. The initiative highlights the importance of accessibility and support in improving both physical and mental well-being.
