Veterans in crisis: dial 988 then press 1, text 838255, or chat at VeteransCrisisLine.net (24/7).
Arizona is home to approximately 460,000 veterans, and mental health support is one of the most important — and most underused — benefits available to them. Whether you're dealing with PTSD, depression, anxiety, substance use, or the stress of transitioning to civilian life, Arizona veterans have access to free and low-cost care through the VA, Vet Centers, and programs the state itself runs. Arizona built one of the most admired state veteran support systems in the country: Be Connected, a statewide program with a live support line (866-4AZ-VETS), trained resource navigators, and a network that reaches service members, veterans, and families before problems become crises.
This guide explains every major mental health resource available to Arizona veterans — federal and state — including what each program covers, who qualifies, and exactly who to call first.
