This is a comprehensive study of the post-deployment health-related needs associated with post-traumatic stress disorder, major depression, and traumatic brain injury among servicemembers returning from Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom, the health care system in place to meet those needs, gaps in the care system, and the costs associated with these conditions and with providing quality health care to all those in need.

Documents the program and community settings, interventions, and implementations of 15 programs across the country that provide interventions for families in which children have been exposed to violence. The 15 programs were part of Safe Start Promising Approaches, an initiative aimed at building knowledge about the effectiveness of specific intervention strategies intended to reduce the harmful effects of children1s exposure to violence.

CBITS was developed for use by school-based mental health professionals for any student with symptoms of distress following exposure to trauma. SSET was adapted from CBITS for use by any school personnel with the time and interest to work with students affected by trauma. This toolkit assists social workers, school-based mental health professionals, and school personnel in adapting these interventions for use with youth who are in foster care.
