The National Center for PTSD was created in 1989 within a Government Agency in response to a Congressional mandate to address the needs of Veterans with military-related PTSD. The Center was developed with the ultimate purpose to improve the well-being, status, and understanding of Veterans in American society. The mandate called for a center of excellence that would set the agenda for research and education on PTSD without direct responsibility for patient care. The National Center for PTSD manages the website www.ptsd.va.gov and has an educational mandate to educate clinicians, Veterans, and their families on PTSD.
The Project Manager will help develop a suite of materials to be used by the National Center for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (NCPTSD) to train providers in PTSD assessment.
