After Army veteran David Jurado returned from Iraq, he struggled with PTSD. His father-in-law, a 38-year Army veteran, told him he cross-stitches to keep his mind off things. David picked it up again.
Today, he teaches cross-stitch to veterans across the country through WWP connection events.
More than 1 in 4 warriors have had suicidal thoughts within the past year, per WWP’s Warrior Survey (Wave 3, 2023). Connection saves lives: 6,990+ virtual and in-person connection events and 1,300+ warrior-only peer support meetings in one year.
WWP programs and services are FREE for veterans, active-duty service members, and their families. Learn how we do it 👉 https://t.co/GgRn5ibj77
