TNAV "Invisible Wound" and Persian Gulf War Resource Center

TNAV's purpose is to talk about veteran transition, raising awareness of issues, challenges and resources - and to encourage veterans to get active within their communities, creating an environment that welcomes and integrates returning veterans.

Diana Veseth-Nelson, is a Military Spouse and Veterans advocate. Her husband, Army Captain (RET) Adrian Veseth-Nelson returned from combat a decorated hero with three bronze stars for Valor, and a thousand yard stare. Discovering a desperate and shared need in the Veteran community to provide a voice for those suffering from the invisible wounds of war, they founded Invisible Wound. As Executive Director of Invisible Wound, Diana’s focus is to work on healing, reconnection and relief for those suffering in silence. Invisible Wound is currently working towards implementing a retreat and continued care model, providing Veterans and their families with real solutions for treating the Veteran and the families of those who served.
