The Brockton Vet Center offers counseling and referral services for substance use problems to the local VA medical center and partner organizations.

We recognize that completing military service can come with a variety of new challenges. Navigating the VA system and other benefits alone can be overwhelming.  We can provide education and connection for: 

• Enrollment in VA healthcare benefits
• Filing a military-related disability claim
• Connection to employment opportunities
• Using VA Education Benefits
• Using your VA Home Loan
• Connecting to state benefits and services

If you're feeling on edge and on guard, having trouble with sleep, motivation, or mood, or just feeling unlike yourself following a major event or critical incident, we can teach you tools to manage these problems and get back on track. Asking for help takes courage and we provide the private, comfortable setting with expert counselors to help you take that next step.
