Until
You Walk The Path, You Won’t Know Where it Goes will be chatting
with veteran supporter and creator of Welcome Home Resumes , Joseph
Corsino on June 24, .2015 at 4 pm eastern as he talks how
his organization helps veterans prepare for the transition from
military life to civilian.
In
2012, Joseph Corsino founded Welcome Home Resumes, a free service for
veterans who needed assistance with their resumes. Since then, the
service has evolved into a complete Interactive Employment Program
which includes Interactive Resumes, Interactive Interview Training,
Job Matching and top tier support both during and after the use of
the program. Joe saw a need for a program that was different, one
that wasn’t afraid to think outside the box to address the issue of
veteran employment.
The Welcome Home Group provides an
innovative employment program to any and all veterans, along with
their immediate family members. This free program was developed from
the ground up to make a difference in the way veterans transition
into the civilian workforce. Through our extensive research with HR
professionals, hiring managers and veterans alike, we have created an
employment system like no other. The program is comprised of several
“Common-Sense” modules that allow our team to work with the
veteran to develop their Interactive Resume, work on their job
interview skills and use our employer matching program. Our program
also brings “Follow-Up” into the equation. We work with the
veteran AND the employer to track the veterans progress in their new
position for the first 6 months after starting a new job.

Horses and Heroes
combines the concepts a talk show with that of a documentary, by
intertwining the spontaneity of a talk show with the scripted
informational aspects of a documentary. It will utilize both
interviews and practical demonstrations of horse therapy to give the
audience a full understanding of how and why working with the horses
help veterans heal. Although Equine Therapy will be the stage, the
primary focus will be on the eight veterans as they sharing what
they experienced while they served our country
and how those events
had a lasting effect on their lives as well as on those who love
them.
orses and Heroes is
not about pointing fingers or creating a political firestorm. It is
a documentary series, which will help military personnel and veterans
find a new way to cope with the physical and emotional challenges
brought into their lives by war. Equine Therapy does not involve
drugs nor lying on a couch and spilling their guts to a therapist.
What it does do is help them find new ways to see and react to their
emotional triggers. It helps their bodies remember how it used to
work. It can't replace what was lost, but it can give them the
confidence to see that they are more than the sum of their body
parts. Horses and Heroes will give veterans and military personnel
the information they need to find alternative healing solutions,
which can help lower the suicide rate.
It will provide the
dual benefit of also providing jobs. We will be hiring veterans
already in the entertainment industry as well as opening the door for
those who are looking for a new career.
Horse
and Heroes will be filmed at Charity Hill Ranch in Rapid City,
Michigan. This semi-scripted documentary will provide dual benefits
for military personnel and veterans. Not only will it share personal
stories and raise awareness about the effectiveness of Equine
Therapy, but it will also be give job preference to veterans.
Animal Assisted Therapy is
extremely effective for those who are physically and emotionally
challenged. It has become widely used in cases of Post Traumatic
Stress Disorder and Closed Brain Injuries. Although almost any animal
can be a healer, dogs and horses are the ones that are most commonly
partnered with veterans. Dogs have the advantage of being accepted
in both cities and rural areas. However, horses more accurately
reflect the mood of the person handling them. This ability is
helpful for the PSTD patient to learn how to recognize their own
feelings. In this way, they learn how to retrain their mind and body
reacts to stressers.
Founded in 2001, Charity Hill
Ranch specializes in Traumatic Brain injury and PTSD. Christine
O'Connell, the owner and manager, has been a PATH International
Certified Instructor of 10 Years, and specializes in Traumatic Brain
Injury as well as being a Certified Brain Injury Specialist. Sarah

Education. Charity Hill Ranch has been certifed as a Premier

Horses and Heroes will be hosted
by veteran, Barbara (Bobby) Kilgore and will be directed by Vietnam
Veteran, Larry Wilcox. These are only two of the veterans, who will
be part of the production team. Horses and Heroes LLC will
be hiring veterans, who are already in the entertainment industry as
well as opening the door for those who are looking for a new career.
A semi-scripted documentary,
Horses and Heroes will create a greater awareness of Animal Assisted
Therapy for civilians, military personnel, veterans, and their
families. The goal is to create an understanding of how and why
the therapy works, thereby giving those suffering from PTSD another
therapeutic option. To learn more about goals of Horses
