Headstrong: No-cost counseling for veterans

Headstrong helps veterans heal the hidden wounds of war with confidential and effective mental health treatment for veterans and their families. Through a network of providers in 12 states and 28 markets, Headstrong connects veterans with rapid, no-cost counseling services (in person or via telehealth) with mental health professionals who have been trained in treating military veterans, including combat-related post-traumatic stress.

“This year’s commemoration of Veterans Day follows news of a 41 percent spike in suicides within the active armed forces over previous years. As we pause to pay respect to those who served and their families, we cannot, and must not, ever forget that the selfless commitment made by its citizens to serve their country can come with a heavy lift – one which recognizes a moral obligation by the nation to fully underwrite their mental health needs,” said retired Army Col. Jim McDonough, Headstrong’s Executive Director. “Let us never forget our solemn duty to hold their needs dear to this nation’s heart.”

Team Red, White & Blue: Strengthening the mind-body connection
The mission of Team Red, White & Blue (Team RWB) is to enrich the lives of America’s veterans. Team RWB offers events, workouts and challenges at nearly 200 locations nationwide and through the Team RWB App for veterans and supporters. Starbucks has worked with Team RWB since 2017 to support their work in building a sense of belonging, camaraderie, and inclusiveness for hundreds of thousands of veterans.
“The challenges stemming from the ongoing pandemic have made the mental health and wellness of our veteran community, and our entire nation, more critical now than ever before,” said Mike Erwin, Executive Director of Team Red, White & Blue. “The support Team RWB receives from Starbucks allows us to reach even more Americans and counter the isolation they can face by getting them outside, moving, and connecting together.”
