Although
the recent attention has been placed on military personnel and
veterans from the current conflicts, there are still many veterans
from previous wars that have yet to deal with their emotional and
physical traumas. The cultural standards forced these veterans to
ignore their pain and pigeonhole their lives. However, in the years
and sometime decades since their service, they have started to loose
their ability to bury the pain. Horses and Heroes will be
particularly helpful for theses veterans. With television's
ability to reach into the privacy of individual homes, it will
breakdown the walls that have kept them isolated and prove to them
that they are the rule not the exception. It will give them
permission to seek the help they need to heal the rest of the way
home.
Horses
and Heroes is highly relevant not only to military personnel,
veterans, and those who care about them, but also to anyone who has
experience a traumatic event in their lives. Additionally,
alternative healing methods, such as Equine Therapy, have proven
their effectiveness in healing both physical and emotional
challenges. Yet there is very little information about the programs
available through traditional venues.
Horses
and Heroes ability to tell the personal stories of healing without
censorship, while supporting the veterans as they find their way back
is what makes it unique and without equal. Therefore it is very
likely to again an audience that will include military personnel,
veterans, and civilians.
