Military members have a long history of sewing name tags, altering uniforms, painting rocks, cleaning weapons and polishing boots. These handwork tasks create focused attention and often a space to talk. At Old Boots Veterans Association we use different sorts of handwork to create focus and attention as a vehicle for health. It might be quilting or another handcraft, but the creative action is powerful. Creating helps heal after the destruction of trauma.
If you are a vet with OSI, check us out, we may be a good fit for you. At Old Boots Veterans Association meetings we share and learn from one another. We use our hands as we talk, it helps the focus. We laugh a lot. Each member is met by Liz Massiah first to get to know each other and make sure there is a good fit. Membership fee is low, the professionals donate their time to give back to soldiers. materials are bought, donated, scrounged.
