5) Coordinating with physician providers. to allow reasonable, necessary, and related veteran treatment not prov1ded by the Veterans Administration, including non-tradi­tfonaJ care, including but not limited to chiropractic physician, access to acupunture therapy and massage therapy care, nuitrition­al counseling.

6) Organize and sponsor athletic events and educational events for the general public with significant veteran emphasis, participation, memorial significance and relevance; provide education to the public and responding citizens on veteran information through our wel:>site, mailings and direct communication.

Combat gear and front~line medicine has advanced in recent years, and more troops are survlvlng injuries that would have killed them In past wars and conflicts. This Is certainly good news, but It presents long-term, lifelong challenges for our present day war survivors. Quality of life, mobility, employability and lifespan are often limited much more than hoped. Family members, friends and spouses must attempt to adjust to the problems brought home by the Injured veterans.

Our injured veterans deal with post-traumatic stress disorder (PSTD), injuries to the neck, back and spine, dlsfiguration, traumatic brain injury, and more. It is estimated that 19% of the 1 .8 million troops who have served in kaq and Afghanistan (320.000) may have e)(perienced a traumatic brain Injury during deployment, according to the Rand corporation. http:/ /WWW.rand.erg/

FAMILY COUNSELING TO RETURNING VETS: We support family counseling to help service members adjust back into their family. We provided $95,000 in-kind to the Camaraderie Foundation, Inc. for private counseling, family support, mentoring and peer group support.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Affects Returning Veterans

• Exposure to a traumatic event with persistent re-experiencing.

• Persistent avoidance and numbing. • Persistent symptoms of increased arousal. • Significant distress or impairment duration of at

least one month.

To treat PTSD there must be education to help the patient understand his condition and the process of recovery, a feeling of safety and support and a non­critical ear to emphasize that the patient is not alone. Exposure therapy can help the patient confront pain­ful memories and feelings. Cognitive therapy can help process their thoughts and beliefs. Anxiety manage­ment and interpersonal therapies can assist patients in understanding the ways the t raumatic event still affects aspects of their lives.

Veterans outreach projects we support with your giving include:

CHAPLAIN'S CLOSET: We send boxes of personal items and clothing to newly injured, hospitalized Veterans from Iraq and Afghani­stan who a rrive with often only the shirt on their backs from combat related injuries.

VETERANS FIGHTING BREAST CANCER: We sponsor Breast Cancer research for a vaccine with Veteran participants involved in clinical trials.

URBAN VETERANS CENTER: Helping Disabled Vets in Birmingham, Alabama who have substance abuse and homeless issues.

Make a Difference in Disabled Veterans· Lives! HELP DISABLED VETERANS IN OUR COUNTRY! For more than .200 years, American Veterans have de• voted their energy to caring passionately for their own injured, needy and under-represented disabled service­men and women. We veterans help each other, train our remaining abilities and help the families of those dis­abled veterans in need.

Since 9/11 over 2.3 million service members have been deployed. The Iraq and Afghanistan wars have left us with 55,000 newly wounded veterans who need your help! 20% of returning veterans suffer from Post Trau­matic Stress Disorder. There are over 26,000 reported mllitary sexual assaults and 22 Veterans will die each day from suicide unless we take action.

Find out how you ain contribute to the future of some­one in nNd through donations of money or time.

OUR MISSION: Amerl.can Disabled Veteram Foundation is a vocal provider for the disabled and displaced veteran. 750,000 veterans na­tionw·ide are awaiting disability claims through the VA and the average wait is more than 340 days. Some treatment is only a.vailable for veterans with 100% disability. That is why we raised .and donated over $460,000 in medical. care last year to veterans who were not receiving VA treatment.

HELP US PREVENT SUICIDE BY DONATING TO OUR 24-7 SUICIDE PREVENTION HOTLINE!22 VETERANS WILL DIE EACH DAY UNLESS WE DO SOMETHING. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs Suicide Data Report, .2012, an estimated 22 Veterans will die each day from suicide each calendar year. Those who die are sig­nificantly more likely to be male and age 50 or older. Male Veterans who die by suicide are old.erthan those non-Veter­an males who die by suicide. The average age is 59.6 years among Veterans identified on state death certificates and 54.5 years of age among those who could be validated us­ing VA Administration records.

The majority of Veterans who have committed suicide were last seen in a VA outpatient setting. A high prevalence of non-fatal suicide events result from overdose or other in­tentional poisoning. The question remains, if most of those Veterans who commit suicide have been seen in a VA out­patient setting, what Is lacking in VA care that allows for sui­cide to occur? Private sources, like American Disabled Vet­erans foundation and its parent corporation, Help The Vets, Inc., as well as YOU and I, have a duty to help all Veterans, including those Veterans who have been seen by the VA on an outpatient setting, and CAN BE SAVED!

As a result, our organization is sponsoring a 24/7 Veterans Suicide Hotline for Veterans who are having thoughts of harming themselves. Manned by a tralned Veteran with a psychology degree, we sponsor this program and have 5-6 calls a month for help, counseling and referral. Our Hotline number is ������ Please give this number to any­one you think may be considering suicide, suffering from depression or need help. Please support this project with your donations and vour oravers! God Bless!

Do you know a military vet who has any of the following symptoms:

� Yes � No Has nightmares about an experience, or thinks about the experience when they do not want to?

� Yes � No Tries hard not to think about an experience or goes out of their way to avoid situations that remind him/her

of the experience?

� Yes � No Is constantly on guard, watchful, or easily startled?

� Yes � No Feels numb or detached from others, activities or surroundings?

If the answer is "yes" to any of these questions, it may be symptomatic of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). We suggest a visit with your family mental health professional or you may obtain help through the VA. According to researchers, 11-20% of the veterans of the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq developed PTSD and 30% of Vietnam veterans.

If you are having thoughts about harming yourself or others, call the 24 hour Help The Vets suicide referral hotline (407)376-7000

2 • GET YES TO SUPPORT Mr. /Mrs. _____ __, the reason for the call is to let you know that the Foundation is underway with

its sponsor drive. Funds raised during this drive will be used towards grants to help thousands of Disabled

Veterans and their families. We send boxes of personal items and clothing to newly injured, hospitalized

Veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan who arrive with often only the shirt on their backs from combat

related injuries. We also assist Disabled Vets who have substance abuse and homeless issues. You are also

entitled to receive, upon request, a financial statement of the charitable organization for whom the

solicitation is being made and a copy of the contract.

The Foundation feels very strongly about this program, but they cannot do it by themselves. That's why

we're calling you ... to make sure the Foundation can count on your support this year. Can they count on

you?

3. ESTABLISH AMOUNT (FIRST NAME), we have three levels of support, let me know which one better suits your budget.

• Our Warrior level is the largest, it costs the most but it helps the most and it's $50

• Our Hero level is $35

• And our Life Saver level is $20

Which one of these could you do for the foundation?

(IF TOO MUCH)

No problem, we have a small single support package and its just $15 for the whole year.

4. SALUTATION
