Heal Vets Craft Kits
Help Heal Veterans (www.healvets.org) provides free therapeutic craft kits to hospitalized and homebound veterans. They’ve helped traumatized veterans improve their motor skills, while helping to improve self-esteem and self-worth. Their kits help veterans take their minds out of the past and off their pain, letting them live more in the present.
HEAL VETS supplies therapeutic craft kits to any military service member or veteran receiving medical care. Kits include a wide variety of crafts and materials such as leatherwork, models, woodwork, jewelry, painting, needlecrafts, poster art, scrapbooks and many more.
They work closely with veterans and clinicians to provide the right kit to meet the veteran’s specific need. Whether it’s restoring coordination and impaired motor skills, improving concentration, or relieving symptoms of depression and post-traumatic stress disorder, our goal is to give our veterans what they need to heal. Our kits are also used as diversions and recreational therapy for patients.
Please know that inventory and supplies may vary; kits shown here may or may not be available at time of request, although they do work diligently to maintain a wide variety of kits to meet each veteran's needs.
