Courage to Care Campaign
Courage to Care is a new, electronic health campaign for military and
civilian professionals serving the military community, as well as for military
men, women and families. Courage to Care consists of electronic fact sheets (see
attached fact sheets) on timely health topics relevant to military life that
provide actionable information. Courage to Care is in the public domain;
designed to be or fit into your health outreach; customized with your local
contact information and sent to your provider or support group network, even put
on your own websites or sent to friends and family. Courage to Care content is
developed by leading military health experts from Uniformed Services University
of the Health Sciences, your nation’s federal medical school.
