Post-traumatic stress disorder can affect veterans, survivors of violence, first responders, and anyone who has experienced trauma. PTSD is real, help is available, and no one should feel ashamed about seeking support.
This month is an opportunity to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and remind our community that healing can begin with understanding, compassion, and connection.
