June is PTSD Awareness Month

Communitas is a nonprofit that provides Direct Support Professional assistance in Poulsbo, Silverdale, Bremerton, and Port Orchard for adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities.

PTSD can be caused by any number of events throughout a person’s life, whether it be serving in any branch of the military, an event that caused or threatened serious harm (or death), being the victim of bullying, and more.  For some, PTSD may also begin long after the events occur.  The good news is that PTSD can be treated.
