PTSD NOW! has funded mental fitness/ resiliency training for more than 2500 men and women serving in Nevada, Arizona, Vermont, and Connecticut.
With your continued support, we continue to work to bring mental fitness training across the United States. In addition, we continue to provide direct therapy for active duty, reservists and veterans at no cost to them. Since 2021, we have committed over $500,000 to support the men and women in need.
These same individuals, in all likelihood, would not have received any counseling without the financial support of PTSD NOW!
Today, as we look at the conflicts around the globe, the issues we face have only been compounded! Conflicts continue in Ukraine and the Middle East and Gaza have spilled over to Lebanon and now Iran. The future for our service men and women is very uncertain with many National Guard personal currently being deployed to the region for assignments.
Our hope is that Veterans day will not be just another day but rather remembering the commitment and sacrifice of those who serve and have served We take for granted the men and women who protect our nation will always be ready to respond, when called to duty. We simply assume they will stand up and give their lives to protect us and our freedoms.
Unfortunately, in many cases, when our soldiers return, they are not the same person as when they deployed. Many times they are changed and more often than not, it is difficult to return to the lives they once enjoyed before deployment. That is where we, PTSD NOW!, come into the picture. We provide the tools which are needed to build mental fitness and resiliency and if needed counseling and therapy .
We are very excited to be working with the National Guard identifying apps which can be provided to active duty and reservists to create connectedness along with a mental and physical checkin on a daily basis. This new technology is very appealing to the young men and women joining the service today. The confidentiality allows higher participation and a connection to those the soldier picks as their support group.
PTSD NOW! has made and continues to make a difference for those who serve, so please make a donation today so our work may continue.
