Episode 28 - It’s Not All Fun and Games

Just about everyone has hobbies or other activities they do in their free time for enjoyment or for education.  Hobbies can also help someone beat addiction, recover from injury, or help them move past a traumatic incident.  The therapeutic uses for sports and other activities is the whole reason the VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System has a Recreational Therapy program to help Veterans recover for past injuries and also to simply enrich their lives.

However, Recreational Therapy at the VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System is changing, and getting ready to add artistic and creative outlets for Veterans.  Join us on this episode of The 9 Line as we speak with Rec Therapist Chris Hayes about how the Rec Therapy program here in Southern Nevada helps Veterans and what the future holds.
