CEO
Give an Hour
Dr. Trina Clayeux is the CEO of Give an Hour, a national organization working to expand how we think about and deliver mental health support. She holds a PhD in Leadership Studies and has spent her career at the intersection of systems change and human-centered service. Her work integrates clinical matching, peer support, and community education to build mental health pathways that meet people where they are.
Dr. Clayeux argues that outcomes improve when we stop treating lived experience as secondary data and start treating it as primary evidence. At Give an Hour, that belief shapes everything from program design to how success gets measured. She brings a national voice on community-rooted mental health to some of the most persistent conversations in behavioral health access, equity, and impact.
