The Administration for Native Americans has created a Web page with great resources for Native veterans. Check it out.

Storytelling for Healing is a website providing resources and a DVD. The website covers many topics important to Native American veterans, while the DVD includes interviews with individual veterans discussing issues they face today. The links below provide information on: historical perspective with statistics from previous wars; Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder; the role of ceremony in service and healing; and resources for Native American veterans. ANA will continue to add resources to this website, so please check back for updates.

We hope this resource will help heal and contribute to the wellness of our native communities by providing perspective to those who stand and work with us to build a better tomorrow. If you are a veteran, our heart-felt thanks and gratitude go to you for watching over and protecting us; you and your families have given a lot. For those who are not veterans, we encourage you to listen to the stories and show your respect and appreciation to those who have served to ensure our freedom and security.
