The McCormick Foundation continues his commitment to those who wear the uniform. Today, the Foundation invests in the Fort Riley community to support the 1st Infantry Division service members, veterans, and their families. In Kansas and in Chicago, the Foundation supports efforts to improve access and the quality of mental health care for veterans. “We are committed to the Fort Riley community and grateful to our partners, the Cohen Veterans Network and Centerstone, for helping us deepen our support for the service members, veterans, and families of the 1st Infantry Division and other members of Kansas’ military community,” said Timothy P. Knight, President and CEO of the Robert R. McCormick Foundation. “With this clinic, we are bringing accessible, high-quality care to military families in Kansas and continuing Colonel McCormick’s legacy of service to the men and women who serve in our military.” The clinic will address a range of mental health concerns including depression, anxiety, military transition challenges, adjustment issues, PTSD, anger, grief and loss, family issues, relationship challenges, and children’s behavioral problems. In addition to therapy, the clinic will provide comprehensive case management services to support clients with social drivers of health, including employment, finances, housing, and more.
