SUMMARY:National PTSD Awareness Day
DESCRIPTION:Help Raise PTSD Awareness\nThere are currently about 8 million people in the United States with PTSD. \nEven though PTSD treatments work\, most people who have PTSD don’t get the help they need. June is PTSD Awareness Month and June 27 is PTSD Awareness Day. Help us spread the word that effective PTSD treatments are available. Everyone with PTSD—whether they are Veterans or civilian survivors of sexual assault\, serious accidents\, natural disasters\, or other traumatic events—needs to know that treatments really do work and can lead to a better quality of life. \nLearn more by visiting the US Department of Veterans Affairs PTSD website or the American Red Cross. \nDuring PTSD Awareness Month\, and throughout the entire year\, help raise awareness about the many different PTSD treatment options. \nShare on social media. \n\nChange your profile picture.\nShare our video about PTSD symptoms.\nFor more inspiration\, check out our pre-written posts for Facebook and Twitter.\n\nEmail\, Text\, Mail a Letter. \n\nSend an email to friends and family letting them know about PTSD Awareness Month and encourage them to visit our website for tips and resources.\nText a Veteran in your life\, just to check in.\nShare our printed materials with someone. You can order brochures\, posters\, postcards\, and other print materials for free online — see what’s available here.\n\nAn important first step to spreading awareness about PTSD is to make the pledge. Show your support during PTSD awareness month and join us in spreading the word about PTSD and effective treatment.

SUMMARY:Psychological Impacts of Transition for Military Service Members
DESCRIPTION:Date: April 21\, 2022Time: 2:00–3:30 p.m. ET \nRegister Online \n\n\nAround 200\,000 service members transition to civilian life each year\, according to the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). As we have seen after the military drawdown in Afghanistan and Iraq in recent years\, reintegration is currently affecting thousands of military families. Reintegration is an important process to understand in terms of its effects on families\, couple relationships\, parenting roles\, mental and emotional health\, and impacts on the larger civilian and military communities. Transitioning military service members who could benefit from mental health treatment may not seek treatment voluntarily. To completely address the needs of transitioning military service members\, treatments and services must consider the wide array of challenges that service members may face when reintegrating into civilian life. Most Veterans experience high levels of stress in their transition back to civilian life. This webinar will shed light on factors contributing to transition stress\, issues with role changes\, lack of purpose and shared experience\, and stigma surrounding mental health diagnoses. \n\n\nThis 1.5-hour webinar will provide a framework for transitioning service members and their families to better navigate the behavioral health resources and services they are eligible to receive. We will discuss strategies for improving access and best practices in treatment and services. Participants will discover tools and resources available to promote these strategies and make an impact in their local communities. \nPresenters\n\nStacey Owens\, M.S.W.\, LCSW-C\, Military and Veterans Affairs Liaison\, Center for Mental Health Services\, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration\nColonel Carl Andrew Castro\, Ph.D.\, USA\, Ret.\, Professor of Social Work and Psychology\, Director\, Military and Veteran Programs\, Suzanne Sworak-Peck School of Social Work\, University of Southern California\nGeorge A. Bonanno\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Clinical Psychology\, Department of Counseling and Clinical Psychology\, Teachers College\, Columbia University\nColonel Denise “Deno” Cooper\, Ph.D.\, USAF\, Ret.\n\nLearning Objectives\n\nDefine the issue by providing relevant and timely data on the reintegration of service members and the psychological and behavioral impacts of military service\nHighlight key factors contributing to transition stress among service members\, their families\, and the broader civilian and military communities\nIllustrate the effects of mental health stigma on transitioning service members seeking treatment and support\, and provide key approaches and best practices to address mental and emotional health\nDemonstrate concrete strategies for supporting our service members as they navigate the behavioral health system and employment opportunities\, and reestablish family roles\nProvide examples of best practices and systems of support and services in place for the behavioral health needs of transitioning service members\, focused on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and beyond\nDiscuss strategies for community providers to improve access and sustained engagement in behavioral health services
