PTSD Anonymous
The mission of PTSDanonymous.org is to eventually establish
a nationwide network of community based, non-clinical, veterans support group
meetings for those suffering from military trauma and seeking the fellowship of
their peers. The website lists meetings in areas across the country. As a new
resource, it is still getting established.
