About PTSD and Our Military and Veteran Community
Estimated 25%-33% of adult homelessness is made up of US military veterans
Recent research indicates 50% of returning troops are experiencing symptoms of PTSD
The VA reports 22 veterans commit suicide every day (based on 21 states reporting, not including the two states with the largest veteran population, California and Texas)
Since 2008, the military has lost more troops to suicide than in combat
