National Park Trust is partnering with Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS) to provide those grieving the death of a military loved one with the opportunity to fish and explore our public parks, lands, and waters. These experiences offer a chance to revitalize their outlook on life and connect with their local communities by getting outside, being active, and having fun. This partnership between the National Park Trust, National Park Service, and TAPS supports outdoor outings at national park sites across the country.
