The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is creating new ways to connect Veterans and their friends and family members with services that improve their lives. A key part of Make the Connection is connecting Veterans with professionals who can help address the issues they may face. VA is committed to helping Veterans and their families by providing the best practices for mental health treatment, based on the latest research. Support the Veterans you interact with everyday and help them Make the Connection.
