Key Points

The Senate officially named June 2026 as National Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Month. It also named June 27, 2026, as a special day to focus on this issue. This is meant to show support for service members and veterans who face mental health challenges after their service.
This action helps people understand that post-traumatic stress is a real injury that can be treated. The goal is to stop the shame that often keeps veterans from asking for the help they need. It also points out that brain scans show physical changes in people with these injuries.
The resolution highlights that many veterans are affected. For example, up to 20 percent of those who served in Iraq or Afghanistan and 30 percent of Vietnam veterans have experienced these symptoms. It notes that many cases go untreated because of a lack of access to care.
By speaking out, the Senate wants to reduce the risk of suicide, drug abuse, and homelessness among service members. It also encourages the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Defense Department to keep improving mental health care and education for families.
