Virtual Lunch N Learn May 22, 2019 - Mental Health Awareness

RallyPoint News — Thu, 09 May 2019 14:00:29 -0400

The VA’s Veterans Experience Office (VEO) recognizes the importance of mental health awareness, improving post-traumatic stress, suicide prevention, traumatic brain injury and other events that occur in service that result in our Veterans and their families struggling with mental health challenges.

In honor of those who have served and sacrificed in ways that are unimaginable, VEO has set up a virtual Lunch N Learn with some of our community partners to share information on resources, services and treatments available in the community that aim to improve quality of life and emotional well-being.

Join us!

-Short, convenient, virtual
-Useful community resources for mental health
-Referrals and contact information

First, if I may, I would like to add a reminder to, for, all vets.
'ALL WARS ARE BANKERS WARS' look for the video online. I believe it's still online.
Also, again, there is now a white house veteran complaint line, since october 2017, I recently discovered. [login to see] .......hopefully can help. ....

I really wish there were regular group meetings for those who need mental care. I have a lot of experience to share.
