Helping Veterans find Peace through SCUBA Diving

WAVES Project Chaplain Sid found this article on veterans finding peace through SCUBA Diving produced by NPR.org. He wanted to share it with all of you. It shares experiences of two veterans and how SCUBA helped them.

Here at WAVES we truly believe Scuba Diving helps with PTSD and gives the veteran a sense of belonging. The war, the battle is never over but with WAVES Project’s programs, veterans can learn to reintegrate back into society with support from others who have journeyed through PSTD, faced life challenges and have found peace and serenity.

As always I am here to talk with whatever going on in your life.

Wounded Veterans In the Park – Pearl Harbor

Along with our partners the National Park Service Submerged Resources Center, Pacific Historic Parks is engaging the veteran community throughout the National Park Service. What better way to challenge and motivate wounded veterans than to put them to work along side the NPS National Dive Program at World War II Valor In The Pacific National Monument as stewards of our nations most sacred naval memorial. . . . We will always remember and honor your service. 🇺🇸#php #pacificHistoricParks #VeteransDay #Veteran #USSArizona #PearlHarbor
