Red Sox Baseball Team Helps to Launch a Program Helps Returning Veterans


The Boston Red Sox Foundation and Massachusetts General Hospital teamed up announce a $6 million program to treat the rising number of men and women returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injuries and to encourage reluctant veterans to seek services.

The players hope to take a crucial role in trying to diminish the stigma many veterans feel about asking for help for a mental disorder.
