Invictus Games Symposium on Invisible Wounds Presented by The George W. Bush Institute Today
Preparations are underway for the Invictus Games Symposium on invisible wounds presented by The George W. Bush Institute.
The symposium will be held today prior to the opening ceremony of the Invictus Games Orlando 2016 presented by Jaguar Land Rover and will highlight the critical roles of organizations involved in the Games and the international need to support wounded warriors and their families.
Over the course of the symposium, representatives from the 14 nations, along with leading representatives from the veterans, military, business, nonprofit and government sectors will gather to discuss solutions aimed at helping returning servicemen and women overcome their injuries and improve outcomes for their transition back to civilian life.
The objectives of the symposium include:
• Highlight the role of sport and active lifestyles in recovery;
• Reduce the stigmas associated with these wounds;
• Honor the service, sacrifice, resilience and continued leadership of our wounded warriors and care-givers.
