Our Veterans Need Us
Helping veterans find redemption, purpose, and Post-traumatic stress therapy through culinary arts
A creative outlet through culinary therapy
Many of our veterans suffer from mental health issues such as post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and substance abuse. However, recent findings have shown that culinary therapy can actually help these individuals overcome their problems.
Cooking and the culinary arts provide a creative outlet for veterans to express themselves. The act of cooking can also be therapeutic, as it requires focus and concentration.
One of the best things about it is the fact that it gives them a sense of purpose. When they’re able to cook for others and share meals with them, they feel like they’ve fulfilled a basic need for others. As such, culinary therapy helps to cultivate a sense of purpose in veterans. This is especially beneficial for those who struggle with social contacts, as it can help them overcome this problem. In addition to the sense of purpose that it provides, culinary therapy also offers veterans the opportunity to learn new skills and connect with other people. This can help them to form bonds and friendships that they may not have otherwise. Changed By The Forkfull provides an opportunity for these veterans to experience exactly how culinary arts can help them. Thus, it is an incredibly beneficial form of therapy for those who have served our country.
