Therapy for the Mind and Body of Our Local Veterans

Since the beginning of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, hundreds of thousands of members of the US military have sustained traumatic brain or bodily injuries. Since then, most have come home — to families, communities, and to a future filled with unknowns. Getting back to a normal life is the goal, and for many it’s a path opened through support of family and therapy. Veterans in Los Angeles are on that path with long term physical therapy and for some, unconventional therapies like creative expression and dance.

Also, the District Attorney is releasing details on the mistreatment of the mentally ill in the county criminal justice system.
