NEA Expands Military Healing Arts Partnership

Today, the National Endowment for the Arts announces expansion of the NEA Military Healing Arts Partnership, a collaboration with the Department of Defense that supports music, writing, and visual art therapy at military care facilities including the National Intrepid Center of Excellence at Walter Reed Bethesda and the Fort Belvoir Community Hospital Brain Wellness Center in Virginia. The announcement takes place as part of November’s designation as Warrior Care Month, a Defense Department recognition to highlight resources available to wounded warriors, their families, and caregivers.
