PTSD in War Vets and Law enforcement
Still exploring the issue identified, the paper will now move beyond the individual/interpersonal level, and to think about the topic from community, organization/systems, and policy levels.
Required Elements:
a. Identify how the issues can be explained and addressed from community, organization/systems, and policy levels. In other words, what are the broad contributing factors (beyond the individual and their family) that are either causing or are correlated with the individual level issues? (Remember, we are identifying root causes.)
b. What is the impact of stress/distress on the community?
c. How could social support and social networks be developed?
d. How do institutions, agencies, and policies support the status quo? Think about local, state, and/or
federal level policies.
e. How can community capacity building strengthen the approach to addressing the issue? Who needs to be at the table?
As always, be sure to cite your sources.
