African PTSD Relief is dedicated to improving the quality of life of all Africans by providing relief from PTSD. African PTSD Relief (APR) is a project of PSTD Relief Now (PRN), which works with individuals and groups around the world who have PTSD or are at risk for PTSD. African PTSD Relief aims to reduce the pandemic of PTSD in Africa by making available the scientifically validated and cost-effective Transcendental Meditation (TM) program. This program has been shown to significantly reduce PTSD symptoms in a wide range of settings in Africa and around the world. Two studies published in Journal of Traumatic Stress show that 90% of Congolese refugees with high levels of PTSD symptoms became non-symptomatic within 30 days of beginning TM, with regular daily practice.
