Memorial Day: How vets are healing through stories
Manage episode 419810726 series 2630758
It’s almost Memorial Day, a time set aside to remember people who’ve died in service of the country. It can be a particularly hard time for veterans, many of whom lost friends and loved ones during their time in service.
Today, we revisit a story from last memorial day and speak to a mentor and veteran in The Red Badge project, an organization that helps veterans heal from loss through writing.
Dial 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline in Washington state.
