This is an update of a resource originally organized by Dr. Ray Monsour Scurfield, social work professor emeritus at the University of Southern Mississippi.
​
It should be noted that a number of active duty personnel have difficulty feeling comfortable going to a military resource for mental health concerns because of worry about stigma, the impact on their careers such as reduced security clearance, trust issues with the military system, etc.
​
Similar trust issues characterize a number of veterans and their families in dealing with the Veterans Administration (VA) or other governmental agencies. Hence, a broad range of military, veterans' affairs, other public and private non-profit resources (secular and religious, politically neutral or not, etc.) are included in this listing, in that all are important elements of a comprehensive array of resources that might be accessed.
