The program Creative Forces is bringing the restorative power of art to active duty patients and veterans diagnosed with traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorders, as well as their families and caregivers. The one-of-a-kind collaboration is kicking off at James A. Haley Veterans' Hospital, bringing creative arts therapy to patients. James A. Haley is one of 11 medical treatment facilities, and the only VA facility so far, to take part in the network. For more information, read the VA VAntage Point Blog and visit the National Endowment for the Arts website.
