Richard Casper (CreatiVets): Art/music can help vets dealing with TBI/PTSD

What a remarkable story: A US Marine with a previously undiagnosed traumatic brain injury finds art and music as the best way to share his stories and feelings, and now offers help to other veterans to explore the same. Also, please see the link below for the important virtual conference on April 23/24 (Fri/Sat) "Partnerships for Veteran & Military Health: Inspiring a Community of Care and Connections"

CreatiVets’ goal is to use various forms of art, including songwriting, visual arts, music, and creative writing, to help disabled veterans cope with service-related trauma (i.e., post-traumatic stress, or PTS) by fostering self-expression in a way that allows them to transform their stories of trauma and struggle into an art form that can inspire and motivate continued healing.
