Atlanta, GA (October 8, 2025) - Major League Volleyball (MLV), the premier professional volleyball league in the United States, is proud to continue to lead the way in athlete support by renewing its partnership with Onrise, the leading provider of athlete mental health care.

“Major League Volleyball believes in a full commitment to our greatest asset – our players,” said David Getsoff, MLV Director of Player Health and Wellness. “It is important for us to provide support to our athletes both on and off the court, and with World Mental Health Day on Friday, it was a perfect time to announce the renewal of our partnership with Onrise.”
Onrise’s unique model offers flexible 1-on-1 telehealth support tailored to MLV athletes’ unique needs and schedules. Services include licensed psychiatry and therapy as well as athlete-specific peer support from retired athletes who are trained and Mental Health First Aid Certified.
