More help for vets...


I WAS THERE = IWT

IWT Founder/Executive Director Benjamin Patton spoke at the Omega Institute's conference "Veterans, Trauma & Resilience: What's Next" at the Society for Ethicial Culture in NY last weekend.
The conference was attended by several hundred veterans and caregivers. Ben's panel focused on individuals and organizations developing innovative ways to bring frontline veteran care from the clinic to the community. It was moderated by BG (Ret.) Loree Sutton, currently NYC Commissioner of Veterans Affairs. Panel members along with Benjamin Patton were:
Scott Thompson, MS, LMHC (Director of Veterans Outreach, Steven & Alexandra Cohen Veterans Center at NYU Langone Medical Center)
Eva Usadi, Founder and Exec Director or Trauma and Resilience Resources and director of TRR's Warrior Camp.
Joe Bobrow, PhD: Founder of the Coming Home Project.
Thank you so much to the Omega Institute and everyone who attended for making this important event happen!
