The Paths We Walk
The Paths We Walk is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to reducing the stigma surrounding post-traumatic stress (PTS) and raising awareness about this prevalent and often misunderstood mental health condition. We believe that by fostering conversations we can decrease the stigma surrounding PTS and save lives.
Through discussions with mental health professionals, and individuals we strive to create a world where those affected by PTS can seek help without fear of judgment or stigma and can receive the care and support, they need to heal and thrive.
