Ilona Meagher, of "PTSD Combat: Winning The War Within" and Guests, of ePluribus Media will be interviewed on a Radio Program, "About Face" {Actually two, one taped last Sunday will Air on Tonight, Saturday, the other a Live Call-In Show on Sunday, out of Phoenix AZ, that is the work of the local 'Veterans For Peace' Chapter, and can be listened to Online at the links and times below.
The below was taken from a recent posting by Ilona, I also had a recent posting about these shows, you can find one here , this is actually an updated, with corrections, post of a previous one a few days before.

From Ilona:
This past Sunday, Robert Roerich, MD (who graces my upcoming book, Moving a Nation to Care, with a compelling Foreword if I may say so myself), Kay Shepherd of ePluribus Media , and myself taped what I hope you agree is a solid starting point for our push to get the issue of combat PTSD not only on everyone's lips, but in their hearts and into their hands -- not minds, because what we now need is action -- as well.

What Is "About Face":
"About Face" is a program brought to you by the Phoenix Chapter of Veterans For Peace. ... The program "About Face" addresses the issues and concerns of our veterans returning home from the war and military. For example, we discuss issues such as the number of homeless veterans and programs that provide assistance, counseling, and training to help these heroes get another chance in life. We discuss the effects of PTSD and how sufferers of this disorder can get help.
About This Show:
We leave listeners with calls to support the Joshua Omvig Suicide Prevention Act (HR 5771) and the 'Lane Evans' bill, the Comprehensive Assistance for Veterans Exposed to Traumatic Stressors Act of 2005 (HR 1588), and my ePM collaboration work on the PTSD Timeline. You would think that with an hour we'd have plenty of time to cover everything, but boy did we only scratch the surface on this incredibly complex issue.

If in the Phoenix AZ area, Tune In on Sunday, if not in that area you can Stream it Live at above Link!
The Saturday radio program is a taped program and can be listened to at the Progressive Radio Station on your puter at the Link above!
