Mission
Reel Recovery is a national 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides free Fly Fishing Retreats for men living with all forms of cancer. Our mission is to help men in the cancer recovery process by introducing them to the healing powers of the sport of fly-fishing, while providing a safe, supportive environment to explore their personal experiences with cancer, with others who share their stories. Reel Recovery provides a unique and innovative program of support and education to men in cancer survivorship. We conduct free fly-fishing Retreats that blend outdoor activity with directed psycho-social support activities, to offer a relaxed, reflective environment for men to come together, share their stories and gain a network of support among people with common experiences.
