PLEASE RSVP AT THE EVITE LINK BELOW Please join us for a special showing of Thank You For Your Service. This documentary film takes aim at the flawed mental health policies within the Armed Services and their tragic consequences. The film interweaves the stories of four Iraq War veterans with candid interviews of top military and civilian leaders. Observing the systemic neglect, the film argues for significant internal change and offers a roadmap of hope. Interviews include Defense Secretary Robert Gates, Admiral Mike Mullen, Generals David Petraeus and Loree Sutton, Sebastian Junger, Nicholas Kristof, Dexter Filkins, Senator Patty Murray, Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Colonels Lawrence Wilkerson and Dave Sutherland. Join us as we view the documentary followed by a panel discussion. Doors open at 5pm and the showing will begin promptly at 5:20. It will be quickly followed by a question/answer and panel discussion with the director Tom Donahue and other veteran leaders. Event will be held in the Cindy Pritzker Auditorum of the Harold Washington Library. https://www.evite.com/event/00CDOXYBWG4Y7UJVUEPHZKBSORT2PI/rsvp?utm_campaign=send_sharable_link&utm_medium=sharable_invite&utm_source=NA
