Almost 1 out of every 3 Veterans seeking treatment for substance use
disorder also have PTSD. Studies show PTSD and substance use problems
are strongly related in people who served in the military and in
civilians. Therefore, our organization is raising awareness of
co-occurring disorders during May – National Military Appreciation
Month.

Below are Links just some of our free resources available for veterans
and
military members suffering from co-occurring disorders and PTSD:

veterans’ alcohol consumption and social/emotional/physical issues.
