About the Founder
My name is Travis Whitlock and I am the founder of Fathers With PTSD. I am a United States Marine Corps veteran and honorably served in the military for five years. I am also a father and I have suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder for many years and it is still something that I continue to battle with in my own life. I knew that I had PTSD for some years now, but I didn’t realize that the disorder is not just for those who are dealing with the aftereffects of being in the military. This disorder can affect anyone and everyone who has been through a life-changing, traumatic event. I know from first-hand experience that my PTSD has not only affected my life, but it has also affected my friends and family around me as well. I decided through my healing journey and understanding how to deal with my issues in a healthier way to create Fathers with PTSD. Fathers with PTSD is a 501c3 nonprofit organization. Through my organization, I hope to empower fathers, like myself and people from all walks of life through enlightenment, education, and inspiration to help neutralize living with PTSD.
