The Washington Initiative created Veteran Care Packs to distribute to veterans of the United States Armed Forces who may be suffering from
PTSD and/or Depression.
These packs will not only provide self-care items used to cope during a trigger event - such as an unexpected, loud noise or claustrophobic situation - but will also serve as a way to enable you to live life on your terms.
These Care Packs consist of the following items:
Earplugs, journals, pens, hard candies, hand warmers, small bottles of water, small puzzles/games, resources and more. There is also an online component (this website), with links to resources, playlists, and meditations.
​
... and it is all free.
