The program began in May, and both students took 10 lessons and received a guitar and accessory package upon completion, so they can continue their studies. 

Guitars for Vets is a nationwide program that aims to help reduce the veteran suicide rate through the mental health benefits of music.

Earl Presley is the coordinator/instructor. Two more instructors are starting this month. Lessons are available. Contact Presley at [email protected].
