The “Give an Hour” program is a great place to start if you are experiencing any of the PTSD symptoms
described below. Visit their website listed below.
Our Mission
Our mission is to develop national networks of volunteers capable of responding to both acute and
chronic conditions that arise within our society. Our first target population is the U.S. troops and families
affected by the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and other post-9/11 conflicts. Give an Hour™ is asking
mental health professionals nationwide to literally donate an hour of their time each week to provide free
mental health services to military personnel and their families. Research will guide the development of
additional services needed by the military community, and appropriate networks will be created to
respond to those needs. Individuals who receive services will be given the opportunity to give an hour
back in their own community.
Our Focus
Our organization is currently focusing on the psychological needs of military personnel and their families
because of the significant human cost of the current conflicts. Over 2.6 million troops have been deployed
in Afghanistan, Iraq, and the Persian Gulf since September 11, 2001. Nearly 550,000 of these troops
have been deployed more than once. According to the U.S. Department of Defense, as of October 26,
2012, a total of 6,623 U.S. troops have died in Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom,
and Operation New Dawn. In addition, 50,054 U.S. troops have been injured during these conflicts.
