“At the end of 2018, we set out on a journey and established a nonprofit organization dedicated to team-based processing, out of the understanding that openness with those who were there together will help our soldiers express what they are carrying inside, and will give them the strength to grow and move forward.
Since then, we have been active across several additional sectors, ranging from individual support to comprehensive guidance for partners and spouses, awareness-raising events, and more.
We believe that the development of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms can be prevented long before they appear, and we place at the core of our mission the ability to empower every combat soldier and combat support member with the strength to grow from any crisis through unique tools.
We invite you to join our activities and support us so that we can help as many soldiers as possible each year—both on the team level and on the individual level. Remember, every crisis is an opportunity, and we have the power to give them one—and more.”

The deadly explosion that occurred in Khan Yunis on July 23 killed the team commander and three of his soldiers, and forever shattered “Paz” team.

“HELPTSD” will initiate and lead activities for soldiers who served in combat roles, enabling them to take part in an empowering, constructive and forward-looking process. The organization will provide support within the soldiers’ own teams and platoons, for those who went through combat events and whose quality of life – and that of the people around them – was affected as a result. In addition, it will support the soldiers’ families and promote appropriate legislation.
We are here for those who gave their bodies and souls for the security of the state of Israel! It is our duty not to abandon our wounded on the battlefield
To provide helpline support, offering a listening ear and initial support through a dynamic community of therapists and mentors. The association employs a psychologist who provides professional psychological support and therapeutic guidance to the organization and its community members, as well as facilitates group sessions for those affected.
We work to raise awareness, identify distress, provide initial support, and promote preventive behavior among officers and combat soldiers in the IDF, as well as their families and loved ones. We also ensure immediate access to care for soldiers who have experienced traumatic events, in order to prevent further deterioration.
The military will be required to conduct a medical and psychological assessment following any incident involving casualties for all soldiers involved.
The military will also be required to document the details of the incident, the soldier’s account, additional testimonies as needed, and a medical opinion in the soldier’s personal record.
“We believe that with a little help you’ll be able to fulfil your aspirations
and, as you have done before, you can beat this too.”
