TORONTO, Sept. 14, 2017 /CNW/ - In recognition of the vital role that families play in the journey of an injured soldier's recovery, the True Patriot Love Foundation, a national charity dedicated to funding essential programs and services for military families, welcomes media to attend the True Patriot Love Multinational Symposium on the eve of the Invictus Games Toronto 2017.
Presented by Scotiabank, this event will include competitors, and their families, from the 17 nations represented at the Invictus Games Toronto 2017, as well as international leaders, dignitaries and senior representatives from the charitable, research, and medical sectors. Together, we will explore the role of sport in the family's journey of recovery, caregiver fatigue, secondary PTSD, the challenges and resilience of our military children in the face of parental injury, and the value of Veteran hiring and mentorship.
