Subject: | Designating September 2020 as "Military Service-Related Post-Traumatic Stress Injury Awareness Month” |
In the near future, I plan to introduce a resolution recognizing September 2020 as “Military Service-Related Post-Traumatic Stress Injury Awareness Month” in Pennsylvania. Post-traumatic stress injury has an insidious effect on the health of individuals and can cause emotional, social, physical, and spiritual and communication challenges for both the veterans suffering from the disorder and their loved ones, following the horrors experienced during war. It is imperative to remember those who gave their lives in defense of freedom and to honor the men and women of the United States Armed Forces who have served and are now serving this country. We should use this time to reflect on the serious disorder of Post-Traumatic Stress Injury that affects many of our veterans and their families. Please join me by co-sponsoring this resolution to raise awareness of Post-Traumatic Stress Injury. |
