A RESOLUTION

Recognizing and commending the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program upon its 10th anniversary; and for other purposes.

WHEREAS, in 2015, Emory University and Emory Healthcare, with the support of the Wounded Warrior Project, established the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program; and

WHEREAS, the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program is a center of excellence dedicated to helping veterans and active-duty service members heal their invisible wounds, such as post-traumatic stress, traumatic brain injury, military sexual trauma, anxiety, depression, and related conditions; and

WHEREAS, in its ten years of existence, the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program has served more than 3,500 veterans and active duty service members, providing them with effective, evidence-based, holistic mental health care; and

WHEREAS, the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program's flagship treatment plan, the two-week Accelerated Brain Health Program, has significantly transformed the lives of graduating veterans and active-duty service members, with more than 75 percent seeing clinically significant improvements in their symptoms; and

WHEREAS, to remove any and all barriers that veterans or service-members may have preventing them from seeking treatment, all transportation, meals, lodging, activities, and clinical treatment are provided at no cost to post-9/11 veterans or their families; and

WHEREAS, while the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program will serve veterans or service-members from anywhere in the country, it has served more members of the military community from Georgia than anywhere else, with nearly 2,000 Georgians receiving treatment; and

WHEREAS, the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program has served the state of Georgia as a member of the Department of Veterans Services' Returning Veteran Task Force, and as part of the Governor's Challenge to Prevent Suicide in Service members, Veterans, and their Families, which Governor Kemp signed at the Emory's clinic; and

WHEREAS, since post traumatic stress and depression have been identified as a significant risk factors for and as an underlying cause of military suicide, the work done by the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program to heal invisible wounds has saved the lives of many veterans and active-duty service members.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE SENATE that the members of this body recognize the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program upon its 10th anniversary for the significant impact it has made to transform and save the lives of veterans and active-duty service members.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Secretary of the Senate is authorized and directed to make an appropriate copy of this resolution available for distribution to the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program.
