U.S. Postal Service Releases New Healing PTSD Stamp

The U.S. Postal Service recently issued a new stamp that will help raise to money for veterans who deal with post-traumatic stress disorder. According to a press release from the USPS, the Healing PTSD semipostal stamp was released earlier this week during a dedication event that was held at McGlohon Theater at Spirit Square in Charlotte, NC.

The Healing PTSD semipostal stamp is being sold for 65 cents. That price includes "First-Class Mail single-piece postage rate in effect at the time of purchase, plus an amount to fund PTSD research." The main feature on the stamp is a green plant sprouting from the ground surrounded by fallen leaves and officials with the U.S. Postal Service says that the image is meant "to symbolize the PTSD healing process."
