What you have just read is the tip of the iceberg; there is so much more captured in the shows already posted and those yet to come.

    Veterans Treatment Court and Miricles in the Making

     Judge Michael Scionti, Florida State Judicial District 13, Veterans Treatment Court.  Each of the programs this month will be in some way connected to the Florida Judicial District 13 Veterans Treatment Court. This court is a model for the national program approved by Congress to set up courts that work to recover veterans who have come into conflict with the law. This, the fourth of these programs, highlights the actions of our county Judge Michael Scionti as he deals with veterans in this special program. We hope that if a program of this nature is not in your area you will bring this podcast to the attention of those with the power to institute it.

    Getting mental health help for the family. Listen in to see how the whole family can have a happier heatthier life.

     Families can find help with the mental problems that come with military life. The VA and DOD do a good job of treating the military member but unfortunately care extending to the family is beyond their charter. Enter the Cohen Foundation and its network of clinics all over the USA, They treat the entire family and funds are not a prerequisite for treatment. No one is turned away for lack of funds.
