Give an Hour (www.giveanhour.org), a national nonprofit organization founded to provide free mental health services to military personnel, veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan, their loved ones, and their communities, is hosting a series of inspiring events in Washington, D.C., April 6-8, 2014, under the banner A Celebration of Service.
Give an Hour is proud to be the lead activation partner for the health pillar of the Got Your 6 (www.gotyour6.org) campaign, a national public awareness effort led by the entertainment industry and top-tier national nonprofits. As part of our commitment to Got Your 6 and the Clinton Global Initiative to educate 100,000 students in mental health disciplines about the issues affecting military families, we are gathering some of the greatest thinkers and doers in the fields of military culture, military medicine, mental health, and civic engagement.
