The Moth recently collaborated with Veterans in Media and Entertainment to host a storytelling workshop for service members and veterans.

Speaking on The Moth Radio Hour, host Suzanne Rust highlighted the partnership while introducing performer Dave Lara, noting, "Dave came to us through The Moth community program via a workshop that we held with Veterans in Media and Entertainment."
