Cohen Veterans Network

About Cohen Veterans Network

Cohen Veterans Network Inc. funds community-based military family mental health clinics, with every recent grant in the sample supporting clinic operations rather than research or advocacy. The largest listed award, $2,701,468 in 2024, went to Valley Cities Counseling and Consultation for a military family clinic in Kent, Washington, showing the scale of support behind individual sites. Other large grants followed the same model, including $2,438,088 to Anchorage Community Mental Health Services for its Anchorage clinic and $2,162,146 to Centerstone of Tennessee Inc for its Clarksville clinic. The pattern is one of direct, place-based service delivery for veterans, active-duty service members, and their families through local behavioral health partners. The foundation’s grantmaking is built around standing up and sustaining clinics in diverse U.S. communities. Recent awards include multiple years of support for Vietnam Veterans of San Diego, Family Endeavors Inc, and Easter Seals Serving Dcmdva Inc, suggesting long-term operational backing for established partners. It also reaches beyond major metros into places such as Alaska, Tennessee, Hawaii, Oklahoma, and Washington, with clinic names tied to specific local sites. Cohen Veterans Network Inc. uses large grants to help community providers deliver evidence-based mental health care within military-family settings.

What Cohen Veterans Network Funds

A central cause area is clinic-based mental health care for military families. Cohen Veterans Network Inc. gave $1,949,263 in 2023 to Family Endeavors Inc for a San Antonio clinic and later $1,596,584 in 2024 for the same clinic, indicating continued support for site-level service delivery. Workforce development is another clear theme. Through the CVN Scholars Program, the foundation supports clinical interns, externs, and graduate students placed in Cohen Veterans Network clinics, with the aim of helping clinics recruit trainees and build evidence-based care capacity. The CVN Fellows Program extends that model to recently graduated and early-career clinicians working toward licensure. The network also funds care in under-served regions. It gave $2,438,088 in 2024 to Anchorage Community Mental Health Services for an Anchorage military family clinic, and $1,686,289 in 2025 to Oklahoma Mental Health Council for a Colorado Springs clinic.
