The Arizona Consortium for the Arts (ACA) and Creative Drill Sergeants (CDS) are actively working on innovative solutions to the many problems our veterans can face after service. One of those problems is when veterans feel disconnected from their communities after arriving home. CDS and ACA are joining forces in partnership to offer collaborative opportunities for veteran families to heal through art, music and cultural. Our nonprofit partnership strives to increase veteran participation, as individuals and families, in our Expressive Arts Programs and Events that include their communities.
