Iowa Remembers will be hosting a Combat Paper workshop in April, 2016.  Our workshop will be a collaboration with Paws & Effect, which is a non-profit organization that trains and places service dogs with wounded veterans.  The workshop is being hosted by the Urbandale Fire Department.  Our effort will incorporate a paper-making workshop with families of fallen service members, service dog recipients and civilians.  Our goal is to begin to bridge the cultural gaps among civilians and those who serve in uniform.  We look forward to honoring these stories with honesty and integrity, and for continuing to find new and compelling ways to remember and celebrate our fellow Iowans.
