In honor of Veterans Day on Monday, November 11, Americans for the Arts CEO and President Bob Lynch and Ret. Brigadier General Nolen Bivens, U.S. Army co-authored an article to the Huffington Post about the unique challenges our military members face today and how the arts are helping them heal. The National Initiative for Arts and Health in the Military, a partnership between Americans for the Arts and Walter Reed National Military Medical Center seeks to advance the arts in health, healing, and healthcare for military service members, veterans, their families and caregivers. Especially on Veterans Day, when we remember those who have fought and who are presently fighting to protect our nation's future, it is imperative that we ramp up our efforts as a country to extend access to arts resources and therapies to all our service members.
