If you are able to donate some time to this worthy venture, you will be sent for training.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
For many Veterans, memories of their wartime experiences can still be upsetting long after they served in combat. If you are an older Veteran, you may have served many years ago, but your military experience can still affect your life today.
Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) may occur anytime the head is shaken or hit, causing “concussion” or “closed head injury”. Unfortunately, TBI has become a “signature wound” of the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Suicide
How do I know if I am suicidal?
Have you been thinking that you would be better off dead? Do you wish you could go to sleep and not wake up? Perhaps you have been planning how you would end your life or making preparations for when you’re not here.
Homelessness
The VA is committed to ending homelessness among veterans.
Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of becoming homeless can call or visit their local VA Medical Center or Community Resource and Referral Center where VA staff are ready to help.
