The mission of iWarriors is to honor severely injured members of all branches of the Armed Forces by providing them with personalized iPads. Many of these warriors are actively receiving treatment at a facility far away from family and friends. In many cases, rehabilitation and recovery can take months and even years. The iPad allows them to stay in touch with loved ones, allows them to schedule appointments on the calendar, and is a convenient place to store medical records. Other wounded warriors have returned to their unit or have left the Armed Forces but continue to battle physical injuries or effects of PTSD and TBI. Many apps are available on the iPad to help in the treatment of the disorder. (www.iwarriors.org)
