The Milwaukee Post

June 13, 2014 • Milwaukee County Post • 13 Post Staff MILWAUKEE – Dryhootch of America, Inc. rededicated an expansion of one of its Milwaukee locations Thursday afternoon. The facility, 4810 W. National Ave., will focus on a coalition of community partners moving to address the many challenges that returning veterans are facing in returning to our community. The Dryhootch Forward Operating Base model focuses on issues of war, post-traumatic disorder syndrome, addiction and family readjustment, as well as the serious legal and social challenges veterans are facing today. "The demands of our newest generation of warriors are overloading those systems designed to help them return home. Our belief is that the community must partner together in order to keep families together, and stop the trauma, struggles, and suicides of our returning veterans. This FOB sym- bolizes this partnership," said Bob Curry, president and founder of Dryhootch. An open house Thursday included scheduled appearances by Milwaukee County Executive Chris Abele, Dan Hereth, deputy district director for U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore and Curry. Veterans who have strug- gled after returning from combat also spoke about what the Dryhootch programs have meant to their lives. "In Milwaukee County we've been increasing services and opportunities for veterans, but we can't do it alone and Dryhootch has been a great partner. This expansion will reach more vets and help those who protected us, that's great news," Abele said. Dryhootch was founded in 2008 and oper- ates another Milwaukee location at 1030 E.
