On Minnesota Now this week, we’re airing Call to Mind, the MPR News initiative fostering new conversations about mental health.

Mental illness is the leading cause of hospitalization for America’s military service members.  Anxiety conditions and post-traumatic stress disorders lead the list of diagnoses. This special explores the mental health needs of veterans and people serving in the military

We hear about how combat and non-combat military duty can impact mental health. And we explore the unique resources and support available to service members and veterans.   

Join Call to Mind host Kimberly Adams for “Silent Battles: Mental Health and Military Service,” a one-hour broadcast special.
