Crossing the Threshold: When Veterans Return Home

In partnership with the True Patriot Love Foundation, Canada’s national foundation for the military community, and the Creative Warrior program, this panel discussion examines the reintegration of military personnel into civilian life—a journey Joseph Campbell describes as “crossing the return threshold.” Join Donna Betts, co-chair of the True Patriot Love Military Creative Arts Program, and Namita Joshi, chief program officer at True Patriot Love Foundation, along with artists and veterans, as they discuss the challenges of this transition and the healing power of creative arts in addressing the mental and physical impacts of war. The conversation will be moderated by company member, Graham Abbey (Banquo and Leonte in the 2025 productions of Macbeth and The Winter's Tale).

Support for The Meighen Forum is generously provided by Kelly & Michael Meighen and the T.R. Meighen Family Foundation.
