Veterans Affairs Administration
Veterans Affairs Administration provides medical needs, counseling, mental health care and additional services for Veterans. If you served in the active military, naval or air service and are separated under any condition other than dishonorable, you may qualify for Veteran’s Affairs health care benefits. Current and former members of the Reserves or National Guard who were called to active duty (other than for training only) by a federal order and completed the full period for which they were called or ordered to active duty may be eligible for VA health care as well. Additional benefits for housing, employment and other services exist at certain locations.
