Manage episode 517696369 series 2304454
Charles River scientist Nicole Hoekstra, herself a US Navy veteran, used her employer-supported sabbatical to help out local Oklahoma based nonprofit Inner Circle Mental Health, which focuses on aiding veterans and first responders who are struggling with their mental health. I am joined by Nicole and ICMH founder Kate Cooper to discuss what this service means to both of them, how we can support family who are reluctant to accept help, and how the COVID pandemic impacted the mental health of first responders.
