From battling PTSD after serving in Iraq to discovering healing through art and music, Richard turned his pain into purpose. CreatiVets empowers wounded veterans with trauma and TBI to heal, express, and reconnect through creative programs in art, songwriting, and more. After nearly losing everything to war trauma, Richard found healing in art and music which eventually led to him building CreatiVets to help thousands of other veterans do the same.CreatiVets is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering wounded, combat veterans to heal through the transformative power of the arts and music. The organization addresses the invisible wounds of war, particularly post-traumatic stress (PTS/PTSD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI) by providing free, creative outlets for self-expression and storytelling.What began as a small program serving just nine veterans in its first year has grown significantly. Today, CreatiVets supports more than 1,200 veterans annually across all 50 states and Puerto Rico, with over 4,500 veterans served to date. Its veteran-created songs have collectively surpassed 21 million streams, turning personal stories of struggle into sources of inspiration and connection.Please leave us a review on Apple/Spotify Podcasts:Apple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-kagan-dunlap-show/id1734065968Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4CoB0WzZTGwZHj7LJIZDTI?si=3f85eb09f07249e7Kagan Dunlap Show Links:YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@KaganDunlapShowX - https://x.com/KaganDunlapShowInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/kagandunlapshow/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61583743284059Threads - https://www.threads.com/@kagandunlapshow?hl=enTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@kagan.dunlap.show?lang=enWebsite - https://kagandunlapshow.com/CreatiVets Links:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/creativets/
