June is PTSD Awareness Month. About 12 million people in the U.S. are living with PTSD, yet many never receive treatment. The good news: PTSD treatment works. Whether trauma comes from military service, assault, accidents, disasters, or other experiences, effective support can help reduce symptoms and improve quality of life. Join us in raising awareness and sharing hope all month long.

In May, the Auglaize County Health Department partnered with Dayton Children’s Hospital to host a four-day Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST) class, adding 11 newly certified technicians to our area. This hands-on, instructor-led training covered all stages of car seat safety. Proper car seat use is important because a correctly fitted and installed seat can help reduce the risk of serious injury during a crash. The Auglaize County Health Department is also a local Ohio Buckles Buckeyes car seat distribution site, offering free car seats to eligible families and free car seat checks to help ensure seats are installed correctly. Car seat installation can feel overwhelming, but guidance from a certified technician can help make travel safer and more secure for children. To learn more about eligibility or schedule a car seat check, contact Alesia Hume at 419-738-3410.
