Mental Health
Program Highlights
Detailed Evaluation and Treatment
Veterans suffering from traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are offered comprehensive care at MIBH, whose experts in brain health work hand in hand with patients to treat their physical, emotional, and cognitive changes that accompany trauma to the head.
Resiliency Workshops
We’re empowering our nation’s warfighters to turn post-traumatic stress into post-traumatic growth through the documentary, Brothers at War. Collectively, through individual journaling and group discussions that focus on the experiences witnessed on the battlefield or from a deployment, service members can reintegrate alongside their families who are also invited to participate in the engaging workshop.
Vets for Vets
Veterinarians from Texas A&M University’s College of Veterinary Medicine and Biological Sciences in partnership with the Gary Sinise Foundation will provide free medical care to police K-9s and service dogs utilized by the military, first responders, and veterans.
Finding Community
In collaboration with the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) and Boulder Crest Retreat, we’re connecting wounded veterans from different military conflicts. Over seven days, veterans come together to heal and find renewed strength to overcome their challenges.
Friends of Firefighters
Friends of Firefighters is dedicated to providing free, confidential mental health and wellness services to New York City's active and retired firefighters and their families. Since the attacks on 9/11, they have expanded to meet the growing needs of the FDNY community by providing a range of peer support programs, financial guidance, expert counseling, and wellness services, all of which are offered by a team of professional staff sensitive to and knowledgeable about the firefighter culture.
Never Alone
Widows of Heroes is a retreat where military and first responder widows can come together to be inspired, supported, and enveloped in a community.

The Stories
The biggest thing I got from attending was that growth is possible. I learned that I do not have to live my life as a diminished version of myself, but a better version. I also learned better ways to cope with stressors in life. And that I am not alone.
