Our Impact

Since 2005, Give an Hour has been connecting people with mental health services and education.

Our main focus is on the 15% of individuals impacted by humanmade trauma who require a higher level of understanding of their unique experiences combined with the shared camaraderie of human connection as essential in their healing journey.

Our priority population are not likely to seek help from primary care health providers, community-based organizations, or a therapist. Instead, we bring cultivated support to them.

I have assisted 19 servicemen and women since beginning with Give an Hour. It has been a blessing to help them get to a better place within themselves and with their partners. I'm grateful to be in a position to offer this pro bono service to them and delight in them when they make progress or have deeper understanding.

I want to thank you for organizing this program to provide pro bono services to veterans. I am a service connected disabled veteran and the therapists we found through your program have been working with me and my family. [My Give an Hour Providers] have been instrumental in helping our family heal, learn, and grow. We have seen and interacted with several other therapists and [they] are truly exceptional at what they do and have a genuine passion for helping others. I wholeheartedly believe they saved my life and marriage and I am thankful everyday for you putting them in our paths.

Client

I fell in love with Give an Hour when I was serving with Team Rubicon. I was in my master's program, but I knew once I was fully licensed, I would be involved. I really believe in Give an Hour's mission, and so anyway I can support, if I am able, I will.

R.S.Give an Hour Provider

This organization means a lot to me. Factually, I would not be on this earth anymore if they did not exist. In 2017, I held my personal fire arm in my hands and considered suicide as a way out just shortly after burying one of my army sons, who at the time, I felt I had majorly let down. I reached out through this organization and found a psychologist who saw me for nearly two years, the first 6 months of therapy were free and I had to twist her arm to even take my insurance card there after. She helped me understand the trauma I was experiencing and helped me find my path...

N.B.Client

As a Navy veteran of the Korean Conflict, I have been blessed and grateful for being of service to veterans and their families. ... Love and Peace to you.

What Sets Us Apart

Connecting Individuals and Partners Together

Give an Hour has served our military, veteran, and caregiver community since 2005. Offering help and hope is a motto that we stand behind. This year we formally expanded our programming and training to serve other vulnerable populations identified as experiencing the same gap in mental health care as our legacy population. As a social entrepreneurial organization, Give an Hour partners with like-minded organizations and thought leaders to pursue innovative avenues to disrupt the status quo and fill the much needed gap that exists in mental health care for our nation. Over the past year we continued to see that as we empower individuals and communities by connecting them with the necessary resources they want, need, and deserve, they thrive and become part of the solution.

It's time to make mental health everyone's priority. Let's create a healthy, resilient world together.
