Abstract Created by REACH
PTSD 101 for Family and Friends: A Support and Education Workshop (henceforth: PTSD 101) was developed as a brief, single-session program for loved ones of Veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The intervention was designed to increase knowledge of PTSD and foster social connections among participants. This study examined the acceptability (e.g., overall quality of the workshop, relevance of the topics covered) of PTSD 101. 181 partners, relatives, or friends of Veterans with PTSD provided feedback on the program via surveys and open-ended questions. Overall, participants were highly satisfied with the content of PTSD 101 and appreciated the social connections and sense of support from other participants.
