PARK CITY Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and suicidal thoughts have haunted many military veterans who live in our communities. This week, six Utah veterans got much-needed help through a local program called Heroes Haven.
The program helps veterans heal as they work out problems together. The six veterans are discovering that healing in Park City with the first all-women s group. This program essentially gives you your camaraderie back, Jessica Patten said, right after unclipping from a zip wire.
KSL-TV caught up with the female veterans at the National Ability Center, where they were learning to trust each other and themselves at a ropes course. Patten was energized after finishing the course with fellow veterans who cheered her on. She said this is where she needs to be this week for her own mental health.
