Program: SMART Veterans
SMART Veterans has used the four key points of SMART Recovery and adapted these to suit the needs for veterans with an addictive or compulsive behaviour. Research documents that an alarming number of veterans returning from military deployment and combat suffer from addiction. The traumatic experiences encountered on the battlefield can overwhelm coping skills and cause mental health conditions. Many veterans will self-medicate with alcohol and substances or engage in risky behaviors that can compound problems.
Specific audiences: Military Veterans, National Online Meeting
Meetings specifically for those who are or have served in the military. Typically led by other veterans who have used SMART Recovery to address their own addictive behaviors.
This is a national online meeting so you can attend no matter where in the country you are based
