Overview


This is PsychArmor's cornerstone course, which was created to educate anyone who works with, lives with, or cares for our military veterans. PsychArmor asked hundreds of veterans what they wanted civilians, employers, educators, healthcare providers, and therapists to know about them. These comments were then used to create the topics of this course.
