Veterans Affairs Canada April 13, 2023There’s more we need to know about the mental health and well-being of Canadian women Veterans.
Can you help us as we set out to learn more?
We are looking for women Veterans to help us plan, design, and carry-out a research project on the mental health and well-being of women after service. The project will start in May and no prior research experience required.

Veterans Affairs Canada May 01, 2023Study results offer new hope for Veterans living with PTSD!
Researchers at the Atlas Institute, Western University and the University of Geneva recently completed study on neurofeedback and the results are showing that it can be a highly effective treatment for the symptoms of PTSD. By the end of the study, over 60% of participants experienced a significant reduction in symptoms, and no longer met the diagnostic criteria for the condition.
This could offer new hope to Veterans and their Families.
Check out the information about neurofeedback on our webpage and be sure to sign up for our free webinar on 1 June. You won’t want to miss this conversation!
