Please join us for a presentation of the veteran’s edition of “Voices of Hope” on Sunday, Dec. 8, from 1 to 3 p.m., in UMA’s Farber Forum, Jewett Hall, 46 University Drive, Augusta. Immediately following the video, Ed Walsh, LCSW, U.S. Army (retired), and UMA alum will facilitate an open discussion on recovery and resources.
Presenting films such as “Voices of Hope” reflects UMA’s commitment to provide a supportive environment and be a catalyst for positive change. This event embodies the spirit of empowerment and resilience, offering an opportunity to connect with stories of triumph over adversity. By showcasing “Voices of Hope: The Rugged Road to Recovery” and facilitating a discussion with a veteran and UMA alum, it reinforces our belief that no challenge is insurmountable with support and determination.
This event, presented by UMA Veteran Services along with Students Empowered to End Dependence (SEED), is open to all, free of charge. Light refreshments will be provided.
