Abstract	This poster presents some of the barriers and facilitators for Vietnam era Veterans in becoming and staying engaged with treatment for PTSD and other trauma disorders, as well as their preferences for engagement. Many Vietnam era Veterans have been coping with symptoms of PTSD on their own, to varying degrees of success, for over 40 years. As these Veterans engage with treatment, they may have different needs compared to Veterans of more recent service eras. In order to fulfill the VA’s mission to serve those who have served, it is important to gain a better understanding of different groups of Veterans’ needs and priorities for treatment. Analysis of the data from this pilot study is ongoing. We aim to gain an understanding of Vietnam era Veterans’ conceptualizations of treatment and recovery in PTSD, including their goals, expectations, and beliefs. Further analysis will also include examining if and how the history of Veterans’ interactions with the VA shape their current conceptualizations of PTSD and recovery. Our goal is to identify possible recommendations for providers to help tailor treatment for Vietnam era Veterans. Barriers
