Veterans have unparalleled weapons intelligence. They also have unprecedented access to guns. After 20 years of war, PTSD remains a critical issue in the military and veteran community. We worked with the Ad Council and the Brady Foundation to create the following series of films facilitating nuanced conversations around gun safety and mental health, to abate veteran suicide.

MILITARY COMMUNITY VETERAN CAREGIVERS

There are nearly 6 million military caregivers in the United States, and roughly 43% of them are under the age of 50. Long after their now-dependent loved ones left the battlefield, our caregivers continue to serve and sacrifice in ways most could never imagine. Fighting their own wars, we have to ask: Who takes care of the caregivers? In partnership with the Ad Council and AARP, we created video, radio, and behind-the-scenes content around military caregiving, focusing on the importance of the caregivers taking care of themselves, too. We leveraged our expansive network of military veterans to find the perfect casting for this campaign shot in both English and Spanish.
