Educating

veterans and their dependents of benefits earned from services they provided our great nation. In addition to our “Mission of Hope,” we strive to form a link, connecting Vietnam Era and Gulf War veterans in all 50 states and engage in concerted efforts to foster changes beneficial to all veterans and their dependents.

The African-American Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Association has provided veterans, family members of veterans, homeless veterans, and incarcerated veterans with direct services (e.g. food, clothing, personal hygiene items, shoes, boots, and blankets). AA PTSD Assn. has provided these services with an all-volunteer force that utilizes their own funds and minimal resources through group partnerships within each state they operate to finance and operate this very necessary program.
