Trama

In the United States alone, twenty-two Veterans commit suicide per day. Project 22 follows two combat-wounded Veterans on a mission to find hope. Riding motorcycles from San Francisco to New York, Daniel and Doc speak with Veterans about post-war challenges that lead to suicide and the healing Veterans are finding in alternative forms of therapy such as sailing, pottery, education, service dogs and more. During the 6,500 mile journey, our riders interview leading researchers, mental health clinicians and educators who specialize in Traumatic Brain Injury and Post Traumatic Stress, as well as, a leading expert in Warrior Culture and Combat Stress. Asking hard hitting questions and opening up about their own struggles, Daniel and Doc will stop at nothing to reach tomorrow's twenty-two.—Medicinal Missions

After tragedy struck home last year, two combat-wounded Veterans set out to end a little-known epidemic in America. Their 6,500 mile, cross-country mission was to raise awareness of the high rate of suicide amongst Veterans and to show their Brothers and Sisters-in-arms that there is hope for them. During their journey, they interviewed researchers, health-care providers and Veterans. Many of those they encountered had either contemplated or attempted suicide and were able to share the life-saving alternative sources of hope that they had found. Asking hard-hitting questions and opening up about their own struggles, and painfully spurred on by recent estimations that 22 Veterans take their own lives every single day, Daniel and Doc will stop at nothing to reach tomorrow's twenty-two.
