It is not available Nationwide yet, but we are working on it. I am the founder and Executive Director for the organization. Please feel free to visit http://www.blanketoffreedom.org and you can also contact me directly.
Blanket of Freedom's mission is to provide a cultural alternative to traditional treatment methodologies through the use of Expressive Art/Drama Therapeutic Interventionsfor combat veterans. Within a supportive and safe environment, veterans will be able to safely explore their feelings and emotions surrounded by others who have shared experiences.

Thank you, MAJ LaShone Garth, for bringing this to our attention. And may God eternally bless Blanket of Freedom.
I have been diagnosed by the US Army, as having a 100% service-connected mental illness/stress disorder.
I also have been diagnosed by my current psychiatrist, as having PTSD: because of all of the trauma that I have been through: parental abuse (by my parents and by my step-mother), homelessness, rape, MST...
I was very, very sick emotionally and mentally for twenty-seven years.
I am basically fine now. I credit ministers and good psychiatrists for my great emotional and mental health.
I am even in a relationship with a doctor! ;)
Most of all I thank GOD.
