Amy and Vince for CAVARTS

when we launched challenge america in 2009 i think it was really a discovery process of what's the best way to serve our military there's so many outreach programs all across the country but no real central location where people can find what's available near them the greatest thing that we can do as americans to support our military and that's what we're trying to do is create community through challenge america whether it's visual arts or songwriting you provide somebody with a way to reframe their experience to be able to communicate what they've been through to be able to share their story but it's in a way that doesn't access the same trauma when you see somebody connect the dots when you see somebody get that light that turns on for them in whatever way that it is whether it's learning to play a g chord on a guitar or painting something all kinds of therapy that's going on through music and through art and through different things that these men and women are finding to connect that side of their brain in a way that that's been amazingly beneficial to them you find these folks finally have the ability to connect you know and that's that's at the core of what challenge america is trying to accomplish so if we've wedded your curiosity you want to check out challenge america just look us up on the challengeamerica.com website you might have a veteran in your life that you love and you're wondering how you can connect them with a meaningful community something that might offer a change that you haven't discovered yet so come be part of the family might be a brother right down your street you can help out [Music] you
