MUSIC ON A MISSION
Voices for Veterans
VOICES FOR VETERANS serves those who serve! Our own musicians go into VA hospitals to perform for our veterans.
Studies show that nearly half of the veterans with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder are also depressed. People who are depressed have low rates of pleasant activities, and their mood improves with increases in pleasant activities. Listening/Singing familiar songs is a source of stimulation and interaction, and promotes engagement in an activity. VOICES FOR VETERANS gives our veterans a way to:
- Decrease depression & isolation;
- Express inner feelings;
- Tap into memories and emotions.
