RELEASE — At one point during their lifetime, nearly one-fifth of Canadian Veterans experience a diagnosed mental health disorder such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). On top of this, over six in ten veterans experiencing depression and anxiety said that they had a difficult transition to civilian life.
On Saturday, October 15, Soldiers in The Arts, a program that uses theatre and improv to address traumatic stress and related problems encountered by veterans and their loved ones, will be hosting a fall theatre workshop.
The program aims to give veterans and their families new skills and experiences, help participants improve their own confidence, self-awareness, and motivation to support their individual recovery and the transition into civilian life.
