Full Description
They fought for us. Now it's our turn to fight for them.
When our nation's Guardians return home, their mission should be over—but for too many, the battle is just beginning. Traumatic Brain Injuries, Post-Traumatic Stress, and systemic barriers keep them from the care, community, and the promised future they've earned.
In Guarding Our Guardians, physician and veteran advocate Chrisanne Gordon, MD, exposes the hidden crisis affecting America's returning warriors and reveals what must change to keep our national promise. Drawing from years of medical experience and advocacy, she shares powerful stories and practical solutions that unite healthcare, education, and employment systems to support every veteran's recovery.
This is more than a book—it's a call to action for citizens, leaders, and communities to step forward together. Because when we guard those who once guarded us, we protect not only their future, but the strength and future of our nation itself.
