Mental Health Care for Veterans & Military

Individuals who currently serve, or have served, in the military or law enforcement face a heightened risk of developing mental health challenges such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Depression, Anxiety Disorders, and Substance Use Disorders (including alcohol and opioid dependence). Suicide rates among veterans are about 1.5 times higher than the general population, and far too many who could benefit from treatment never receive the support they need.

It’s important to remember that the sacrifices of service members and law enforcement officers don’t end when active duty or combat is over. Many continue to experience the long-term effects of trauma and stress even after transitioning back into civilian life, making access to specialized care essential.
