The school invested the funds into a three-year study to compare the effectiveness of different therapies in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder among civilians, first responders, veterans and current military members, according to a Feb. 9 news release from PESI.

The school’s researchers started their work comparing cognitive processing therapy and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy in January. 

At the Becker's Fall Behavioral Health Summit, taking place November 4–5 in Chicago, behavioral health leaders and executives will explore strategies for expanding access to care, integrating services, addressing workforce challenges and leveraging innovation to improve outcomes across the behavioral health continuum.
