PTSD Among Asian-American and Pacific Islander Veterans

Perspectives for medical providers

Run time: 57 min, in 4 parts
Production date: 2002

This video is designed to help providers by increasing awareness of the cultural aspects of PTSD care when provided to Asian American Veterans. Within his or her life, each Asian American veteran carries experiences, which may include discrimination or abuse, and this may compound PTSD.

Our goal is to assure caregivers understand the history and cultural issues of Asian Americans and how we can best serve these veterans.
