The bill mandates the establishment of the Veterans Outdoor Recovery Task Force by the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) to enhance outdoor recreational opportunities for veterans as a means of treatment and rehabilitation. The task force will consist of various state commissioners and additional members deemed necessary by the DVA Commissioner. It is tasked with identifying coordination opportunities between the DVA and public land agencies, recognizing barriers to outdoor therapy for veterans, and developing recommendations to improve access to public lands for medical treatment and therapy. The task force is required to hold at least three public hearings across the state to gather public input.

Additionally, the task force will report its findings and recommendations to the Legislature and the Governor within eighteen months of its initial meeting, with the report being publicly accessible on relevant state websites. The bill defines "public lands" as recreational land under government jurisdiction and specifies that a "veteran" is any individual discharged from the Armed Forces under conditions other than dishonorable. The task force will dissolve upon submission of its report, and the bill is modeled after the federal Accelerating Veterans Recovery Outdoors Act.
