Healing America’s Heroes: Helping Them Come Home Town Hall
07 Mayo 2024 - 10:48AM
What: Many people may not be aware of the various challenges
military personnel face when they transition from active service to
civilian life. These challenges include reconnecting with family
members, entering the workforce, and relating to those who may not
understand the experiences veterans have endured during their
active duty. Additionally, adjusting to a different pace of life
and work can significantly take a toll. In this Town Hall, we will
speak with military leaders and advocates to explore how we can
support these heroes in transitioning back home as smoothly and
supportively as possible.
When: Wednesday, May 15th at 7:00 PM EST
Where: LIVE on Health Channel, AllhealthGo’s Facebook and
YouTube pages, and streamed at AllHealthTV.com/TownHall.
