Ukrainian-American charity coordinators are seeking the assistance of any psychiatrists or other qualified mental health providers to donate their expertise in helping to develop guidelines for group focused discussion sessions for Ukrainian veterans suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Sadly, there are not enough mental health providers in Ukraine to cope with the massive number of depression and PTSD patients throughout their nation. The basic plan is to have veterans who are successfully dealing with their PTSD symptoms help those who are not faring as well. We are envisioning something similar in nature to a ?"12 step" program, where the focus is on mutual support. Many veterans with PTSD are not getting sufficient treatment and are resorting to self medication and isolation. This is negatively affecting family relationships during an already incredibly difficult time for this struggling nation. Time spent on the program is entirely up to the individual volunteer. Any interested providers are requested to contact the campaign coordinator, Ken Witkowich (352) 287-2536 or UkraineNeedsUs@... (seven days a week EST, early to late). This is an opportunity to help save lives and help save families. Please consider helping. Thank you.
