History
The Vet Center program was established by Congress in 1979 out of the
recognition that a significant number of Vietnam era veterans were still experiencing
readjustment problems. Vet Centers are community based and part of the U.S.
Department of Veteran Affairs. The goal of the Vet Center program is to provide a
broad range of counseling, outreach and referral services to eligible veterans and
their families. Due to the success of Vet Centers in addressing the needs of combat
veterans, the program was expanded to include veterans who served in Lebanon,
Grenada, Panama, the Persian Gulf, Somalia, Korea, WWII, and Southwest Asia.
