Our primary focus is your safety. If you feel hopeless, suicidal, or in need of crisis care, just let your counselor know so you can work together to help you feel safer and more optimistic about your future. Should you need the Veterans Crisis Line, just dial 988. In addition to calling them, you can also reach them via confidential chat at Veterans Crisis Line or text to 838255. 

The Vet Center Call Center at 877-927-8387 is an around-the-clock confidential call center where combat Veterans and their families can call to talk about their military experience or any other issue they're facing in their readjustment to civilian life. The staff is comprised of combat Veterans from several eras as well as family members of combat Veterans. If you are in immediate crisis the Vet Center Call Center can make a warm hand-off to the Veterans Crisis Line to support your needs. 

Together we work to help you stay safe and improve your world.

Your safety is our priority. We can help connect you to the VA Central Iowa Health Care Center 24-hour emergency room if you’re in crisis.

We’ll connect you with our local VA suicide prevention coordinator.

If you need help and want to connect with another Veteran, we are here. Some of our staff are Veterans, too. We understand Veteran and military experiences and can provide one-on-one counseling.
