PsySSA Commemorates PTSD Awareness Day

PsySSA Commemorates PTSD Awareness Day

 

Today is Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Day.

Trauma isn’t always visible—but its impact is real. Post-traumatic stress affects individuals, families, and communities, often in ways that go unseen. Raising awareness helps reduce stigma, deepen understanding, and create pathways to meaningful support, recovery, and healing.

At PsySSA, our commitment to trauma-informed psychological practice is reflected in the work of our Trauma and Violence Division (TVD) and our Division for Neuropsychology and Forensic Psychology (DNFP). Through research, professional practice, education, and advocacy, these divisions contribute to strengthening trauma-informed psychological services and advancing evidence-informed responses to trauma across South Africa.

With understanding, evidence-informed care, timely support, and compassionate communities, recovery is possible.

Each of us has a role to play. Listen without judgement. Learn about trauma and its impact. Support those who are affected. Advocate for accessible, trauma-informed psychological care and environments that promote healing.

Together, we can help create a society where trauma is understood, healing is supported, and no one has to face recovery alone.

Call for Psychological Support to Whistleblowers

The Whistleblower House (TWBH) is a not-for-profit public benefit organisation established on 22 February 2022 to provide confidential and multidisciplinary support to whistleblowers across South Africa.

While whistleblower protection is a statutory responsibility of the state, practical protection and integrated support mechanisms remain limited. TWBH addresses this gap by facilitating access to legal, financial, psychological, and safety support for individuals who have disclosed wrongdoing and are experiencing personal and professional consequences.

Since inception, TWBH has received more than 472 whistleblower applications nationally with an average of 10 new applications per month. The organisation operates virtually and maintains strict anonymity and confidentiality protocols.

 If you would like to partner with The Whistleblower House to help whistleblowers and their families in their recovery, please complete an Expression of Interest form by clicking Apply below. Applications are open on an ongoing basis and may be submitted at any time.
