Give an Hour
Serves: Nationwide
National nonprofit built around a network of volunteer licensed mental health professionals who donate their time to provide free, confidential counseling to service members, veterans, and their families — literally giving an hour of care. Fills gaps left by insurance, eligibility rules, and provider shortages, and has expanded into peer support and community mental-health education. Care comes from licensed clinicians at no cost to the client. A strong referral when someone needs therapy but faces cost or eligibility barriers to VA or TRICARE care.
