Big Dreams Outdoors is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering individuals with intellectual disabilities and their families through inclusive outdoor recreation, conservation education, advocacy, and community storytelling.

From the beginning, Big Dreams Outdoors was created with a simple but powerful belief: the outdoors brings people together, builds confidence, and reveals potential that too often goes unseen. While we proudly focus on serving individuals with intellectual disabilities, we are not confined to a single label or limitation. We believe inclusion strengthens entire communities — and everyone benefits when opportunity is expanded.

We are not simply about taking someone hunting or fishing or providing a one-time experience. We exist to use our resources, partnerships, and platform to educate communities about the capabilities, leadership, and potential within every individual. Through meaningful participation in outdoor recreation, conservation efforts, and land stewardship, we work to shift perspectives, open doors, and create lasting impact.

Big Dreams Outdoors stands for possibility without limits. We champion inclusion, cultivate leadership, and build spaces where individuals of all abilities can grow, contribute, and thrive.

At our core, we are about people, purpose, and the belief that big dreams belong to everyone.
