Army Sponsors Awareness Programs

Week of November 12, 2007

Stars and Stripes reports that recognizing post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI) should be easier thanks to a new mandatory awareness program the Army launched this summer. The one- to two-hour "chain-teaching" program should have been delivered to all units by their command in mid-October 2007. The conditions affect up to 30 percent of downrange troops. For more information, visit the Army's Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (PTSD/MTBI) Chain Teaching Program webpage.
