The Art of Recovery: Creative Forces at the James A. Haley Veterans' Hospital

“I was first very skeptical of Creative Forces. How does art work? How does music or dance, how does that fit into these seriously injured people? And my experience has changed completely around. We saw that we could reach people that we couldn't reach before.” 

~Dr. Steven Scott, DO, Chief Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Service, James A. Haley’s Veterans’ Hospital

Haley Veterans' Hospital, one of the first Creative Forces clinical sites, and the Straz Performing Arts Center, a past recipient of a Creative Forces Community Engagement Grant.  

This video introduces the work of three creative arts therapists and veterans whose lives have changed through creative expression.
