A resolution expressing support for the designation of the month of June 2026 as "National Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Month" and June 27, 2026, as "National Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Day".

This resolution recognizes the toll that combat-related trauma takes on service members and veterans by designating June 2026 as National Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Month and June 27, 2026, as National Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Day. It notes that between roughly 11 and 30 percent of veterans from different eras — including Vietnam, the Gulf War, and the post-9/11 conflicts — have experienced post-traumatic stress, and that stigma and limited access to care often keep it undiagnosed and untreated. The Senate expresses support for Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense efforts to educate service members, veterans, and their families about the condition and to encourage a culture where seeking treatment is accepted. It also recognizes the impact of post-traumatic stress on the spouses and families of service members and veterans.
