MHFA VETERANS AND MILITARY…
- Why MHFA for Veterans, service members, and their families…
-
- While military service often fosters resilience in individuals and families, some service members may experience mental health or substance use challenges
- Thirty percent (30%) of active duty and reserve military personnel deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan have a mental health condition requiring treatment – approximately 730,000 men and women, with many experiencing post-traumatic stress syndrome/post traumatic stress disorders (PTSS/PTSD) and depression
- Sadly, less than 50% of returning veterans in need receive any mental health treatment. The Veterans Administration reports that approximately 22 veterans die by suicide every day
- Course assists family members and personnel working with military and families who are often not aware of how to engage veterans with mental illnesses and addictions
- In addition to the impact of military service on the veteran, each has a circle of family and friends who are also impacted by their military service
