Project Description
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Homeless Women with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Category: Treatment
Sponsor: National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)
PI: Suzanne Wenzel
Start Date: May 2006
End Date: March 2010
Homeless women suffer from traumas and PTSD at rates typically higher than among housed women. Although effective, empirically validated treatments for PTSD are available, homeless women are unlikely to avail themselves of mental health services despite high levels of need. This three-year study addresses a critical gap in treatment research to meet the mental health service needs of homeless women.
