Virginia Beach is home to one of the most active military communities in the country. It’s also where many veterans and service members are navigating the lasting effects of their service—too often without access to the mental health care they need. Our organization exists to change that.

The Headstrong Project provides confidential, cost-free, evidence-based PTSD treatment for veterans, service members, and their families—without waitlists, bureaucracy, or barriers to care. Our model is designed to move quickly, deliver high-quality care, and drive meaningful outcomes for those who have served.

In 2025 alone, Headstrong delivered care to more than 500 veterans and service members in Hampton Roads. Virginia Beach is the largest market we serve—reaching more military members here than in any other region nationwide.

This evening is an opportunity to see our mission up close.

Join us on the Great Lawn of the Historic Cavalier Hotel for a relaxed, meaningful gathering alongside fellow supporters, community leaders, and members of the military community. You’ll hear directly from Headstrong’s leadership and from local veterans whose lives have been changed through care.

Whether you are new to The Headstrong Project or already connected to our mission, this is a chance to better understand the need, the model, and the role this community can play in ensuring every veteran has access to the care they deserve.

Enjoy cocktails, heavy hors d’oeuvres, and conversation as we come together around a shared commitment to those who have served.

We look forward to having you with us! Special thanks to our partners at HANKS for our Troops for partnering with us on this event.
