Wellness and Crisis Intervention | Foreign Born Military Spouse Network

Provides referral services for housing, domestic violence and sexual assault services, and abuse cases. Immigration stress, isolation, language barriers, lack of awareness of the system or what to do and lack of extended family support significantly predispose and heighten crisis and mental health risks for foreign-born spouses. Many do not seek help because of stigma or cultural barriers and lack of support systems. The program provides empathy-first, culturally and trauma- informed, emotional support through trained volunteers and a warm line of first responders.
