With the counselor that I have now, I feel like I have a civilian “battle buddy.” She may not have been in the military, but her willingness to assist me, the comfort she provides me and the fact that she has donated her time so that I could receive free counseling is amazing. The program really is a testament to a true American spirit and the idea that it takes a community to welcome home a warrior and to heal their mind, body and spirit…Thank you, Returning Veterans Project, for helping not just me, but so many of my fellow service members so we may continue to be a functioning part of society and live more full and more rewarding lives.
