Since 2014, VA has sponsored PTSD Awareness Month to educate the public on the mental health condition that affects an estimated 6 out of 100 Americans and 7 out of 100 Veterans. June 27 is National PTSD Screening Day to spread awareness about the importance of self-screening. But screening is available year-round. If you or someone you love may have PTSD, take an online PTSD self-screen anytime here. After the screening, Veterans can contact a health care provider to further discuss results and next steps.
