With improvements in field medicine, an even greater number of soldiers have come home from wars in Afghanistan and Iraq disabled and in need of care. Their families then pick up the majority of that care and must adjust to a very different life than the one they lived before. In the film Weight of Honor, Stephanie Seldin Howard explores the impact on these families and how they adjust to profound losses and changes. What support do they receive? What is missing? And what can we learn from their experiences? Join us as we talk about the film and what Stephanie learned making it.
