Medicinal Missions, LLC, based in Venice, California, was formed by two Combat Wounded Veterans in 2013. Last year, the Veterans set off on a motorcycle journey across America. Their 6,500-mile mission was to raise awareness about the high rate of suicide amongst Veterans. During their journey, they interviewed researchers, healthcare providers, and Veterans, many of whom had either contemplated or attempted suicide and were able to identify the life-saving, sources of hope that these Veterans had found. Their trip was documented and will be released this October, called Project 22. http://vimeo.com/88726748
Mental health concerns seriously affect more and more Americans each day; I Hear Voices offered moments of levity, times of melancholy introspection and about a dozen or so songs sung by some of the best LA has to offer in order to raise awareness and to support an organization that offers help to those in need. I Hear Voices was meant as a celebration of life, and being able to recognize the difference between "what drives us batty" and when something is truly the matter and we need to reach for support.
