Veteran Resources
SFinding Support Is a Sign of Strength
Service can shape a person’s life long after the uniform comes off. The challenges that follow may involve mental health, relationships, employment, finances, benefits, physical recovery, or the search for a renewed sense of purpose.
This page brings together six trusted resources that can help veterans, service members, caregivers, and military families find support. You do not need to know exactly what you need before taking the first step.
A Place to Begin
The Right Support May Look Different for Everyone
Some people need immediate help. Others are searching for counseling, trying to understand their benefits, supporting a family member, or looking for people who understand life after service.
The resources below offer different starting points. Some are operated by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Others provide peer support, nationwide referrals, or nonprofit programs.
Second Watch Overland does not provide clinical treatment, crisis intervention, or benefits representation. Our role is to help people find credible organizations equipped to provide those services.
Beyond a Resource List
Connection Still Matters
Professional care, benefits guidance, and crisis support all serve important roles. So do honest conversations, trusted relationships, and time spent with people who understand.
Second Watch Overland strengthens the lives of veterans, first responders, and their families through outdoor experiences, peer support, community service, and adventure with purpose. We are not a substitute for professional treatment, but we believe community can help people reconnect with themselves, one another, and the world around them.
