PTSD currently affects over 20% of our brave Veterans and is one of the leading causes of self-medicating, suicide, and depression. The month of June is dedicated to bringing awareness to the struggle of PTSD, in Veterans, their families, friends, and communities. Below are lists of resources provided through the Veteran’s Medical Center, churches, non-profits, and state programs that bring awareness and offer assistance to those who live with PTSD.
