VA Study
VA Study to Compare PTSD Treatments
According to an October 24 article by VA staff writer Tom Cramer, VA is preparing to launch a $17 million study that will examine the two leading forms of treatment for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder: Prolonged Exposure Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy. “Our primary goal is to compare the treatments,” said Dr. Paula Schnurr, the study’s lead investigator. “But we’ll also examine which treatments are best for different types of patients; for example, women versus men.” Schnurr is deputy executive director of VA’s National Center for PTSD and a research professor of psychiatry at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth.

From the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
October 26 Is National Prescription Take-Back Drug Day
According to the 2011 Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s National Survey on Drug Use and Health, twice as many Americans regularly abused prescription drugs than the number of those who regularly used cocaine, hallucinogens, heroin, and inhalants combined. The same study revealed more than 70 percent of people abusing prescription pain relievers got them through friends or relatives, a statistic that includes raiding the family medicine cabinet. During the Drug Enforcement Agency’s take-back day in April 2013, more than 371 tons of unneeded prescription medications were collected at more than 5,800 locations. The last six take-back days have collected and removed from circulation more than 2.8 million pounds of prescription medications.

Although we are welcoming our warriors home with balloons and applause -- and we do shake their hands and thank them for their service -- we continue to struggle to ensure that returning troops and their families receive the opportunities they need and the support they deserve beyond the homecoming. At the very least we must offer them understanding and acceptance; so far, we are falling short…

Hi
A couple of weeks ago I emailed you about Make the Connection, which provides extensive resources for Veterans suffering from mental health conditions. Make the Connection also features video testimonials from Veterans from all eras and branches and VA approved treatment and support resources. I believe these resources would be a good addition to the your resources listed on http://www.chapter17lasvegas.org/resources.html.
Let me know if I can answer any questions or provide you with additional information on these valuable resources for Veterans.
Thanks,
Melissa Schaff
PS – To add Make the Connection images or banners to your site, download them at: http://maketheconnection.net/resources/spread-the-word
I've added the paragraph below in case you would like language to describe the link:
Make the Connection provides personal video testimonials and resources to help Veterans discover ways to improve their lives. The site also provides informational resources on mental health conditions such as PTSD and depression, and symptoms of problems such as drug and alcohol abuse.
