For years, through the Gary Sinise Foundation, iconic actor Gary Sinise, known for his dramatic portrayal of Lt. Dan in the hit film “Forrest Gump,” has been working to transform the lives of those who’ve already given so much. From war-torn battlefields half a world away to dealing with major disasters that destroy lives, they are the men and women of the armed forces. They and their families pay the heavy cost of freedom in service to their country, yet many are facing the lasting effects of trauma, deep depression, mental health issues, addiction, and even homelessness. Gary shares more about their incredible work and that of America’s first responders, and how he's turning his own personal tragedy into a beacon of hope to make a difference.
