This bill, SR758, supports the designation of June 2026 as "National Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Month" and June 27, 2026, as "National Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Day." It aims to raise awareness about post-traumatic stress and the impact it has on individuals and communities. The bill has been sponsored by a bipartisan group of senators, including both Democrats and Republicans.

The bill would primarily affect those who suffer from post-traumatic stress and their families, as well as mental health professionals, support groups, and educational institutions. By designating specific days and a month for awareness, it seeks to encourage dialogue, education, and support for those affected by post-traumatic stress.

As of the last status update on June 8, 2026, the bill has been submitted in the Senate, considered, and agreed to without amendment and with a preamble by unanimous consent. This indicates that the Senate has officially expressed its support for the resolution, though further actions may be necessary for it to be fully enacted or recognized.
