Give an Hour

Give an Hour is a national non-profit organization dedicated to providing free mental health services to military veterans, service members, and their families. Established in 2005, the organization operates through a vast network of licensed mental health professionals who volunteer their time to offer confidential counseling and support. In addition to its focus on the military community, Give an Hour provides assistance to other populations impacted by trauma, such as survivors of mass violence and natural disasters. The organization also spearheads the 'Campaign to Change Direction,' a public health initiative designed to improve mental health literacy and reduce the stigma associated with seeking care. By bridging the gap between those in need and available resources, Give an Hour plays a critical role in the mental health landscape.
