Most veterans who have served within the last 20 years know a thing or two about video games. Studies have shown that veterans who play video games have been able to recover from some mental health challenges, because they provide an escape and simultaneously boosts confidence, leadership and social connections.
The Games to Grunts program supports community engagement to Veterans, active military and their families. Most of the games they offer are on Steam, such as TEKKEN 7, Cooking Simulator, and Vietnam ’65. Other platforms are available, such as Xbox 360.
Game publishers and others donate to Games to Grunts, which then distributes the games. Eligibility is determined through ID.me, a third party identity verification service.
To sign up, visit the Games to Grunts website and create an account.
