Cow Harbor Warriors to launch awareness campaign leading up to second Warrior Weekend
Northport, NY – April 2, 2014 – After they leave the battlefields and duty stations, many veterans find they are still fighting - against post-traumatic stress (PTS), traumatic brain injury (TBI), depression, overmedication and even poverty. Sadly, it’s a battle that leaves 22 veterans dead – by their own hands – every day.
Staying true to their mission to honor and enable wounded warriors and veterans in need from post 9/11 wars, Cow Harbor Warriors aims to call attention to this tragedy in the 22 weeks leading up to its second Warrior Weekend, September 5-7, 2014. The organization will be holding a news conference to outline its plans for a series of events that will help Americans understand the scope of the problem and what they can do to help.
The news conference is scheduled for:
April 10th, 2014 at 12:30 pm
Veterans Plaza
Huntington Town Hall
100 Main Street
Huntington, New York
