Good afternoon. My name is Jeanette McLeod. I am the spouse, as well, of a Canadian Armed Forces veteran.
I'm the director of community education with the Caregivers' Brigade. I help to promote a better understanding of PTSD and physical injuries in the community, to local college students as well as local hospitals, by bringing education about situations faced by veterans if the caregiver becomes ill. I also am a volunteer with VETS Canada and help to assist any veterans who may be struggling in the community.
I'll now pass it over to my colleague.
