Free Mental Health Services for Military


Give an Hour is a nonprofit 501c3 organization, founded in September 2005 by Dr. Barbara Van Dahlen, a psychologist in the Washington, D.C., area.  The organization's mission is to develop national networks of volunteers capable of responding to both acute and chronic conditions that arise within our society.  Currently, Give an Hour is dedicated to meeting the mental health needs of military personnel, their families, and the communities affected by the ongoing conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Give an Hour has more than 6,000 providers across the nation -- in all 50 states, D.C., Puerto Rico and Guam -- with more volunteer mental health professionals joining its network every day.  In addition to counseling, providers also consult to schools, first responders, employers, and community organizations.  Give an Hour has already provided over 40,000 hours of free service, valued at more than $4 million.  To learn more, visit www.giveanhour.org.
