Drop 22 Challenge in Beaver Falls Aims To Raise Awareness About PTSD, TBI Among Veterans

A crowd of people turned out Saturday at the Joe Namath Practice Field at Beaver Falls High School to raise awareness about the signs of post traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury. Shaun Duguay of Rochester, organized the event. State Rep. Jaret Gibbons, a Democrat from Franklin Township, was there and he spoke to Beaver County Radio’s Mike Romigh, who was also at Saturday’s event, about the need to support veterans and ensure they have support from the community and access to the help they need. About 25 people then came out to the field and took the Drop 22 Challenge, a viral Internet trend where people post videos of themselves doing 22 push-ups.
