The Mission of the PTSD Foundation of America is to bring hope and healing to Combat Veterans and their families suffering from the effects of combat-related Post Traumatic Stress.
We do this by taking a whole-person approach, offering evidence-based peer-to-peer mentoring, both on an individual basis and in group settings. In addition, our programs and services are free to the veterans and their families so that the focus remains on their journey to healing.
We take a collaborative approach to raising awareness of the increasing needs of the military community by working with government agencies, service organizations, churches, and private sector businesses to combine resources.
By taking our message to public events, media outlets, social media, and service organizations we can more effectively reach Veterans in crisis and make a life-saving impact on the Veteran community.
The Peer Coaching and Support program’s primary purpose is to help combat veterans find healing and achieve positive reintegration with their families and society.
We also have Family Coordinators who sit down with the family members to help them process the secondary PTSD symptoms that they begin to exhibit as a result of the trauma we bring into the home.
Additionally, we offer a six-to-nine-month program at Camp Hope in Houston for veterans dealing with addiction problems, who are currently homeless or find themselves caught up in the legal system. We assist in employment opportunities, benefit claims, educational benefits, housing, and in some instances procurement of permanent transportation.
As advocates for recovery, we also host support programs and trauma intervention training at our SA facility throughout the year.
Training courses such as ASIST (suicide prevention program), Suicide PIP (Partners in Prevention), Mental Health First Aid, First Responders Chaplaincy Training, First Responder Peer Support Course, Strategic Response to Crisis, First Responder Response to Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence, and others are conducted regularly.
We network at the state and local levels to streamline veterans' accessibility to critical resources including housing, employment, medical, legal, and military benefits.
