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.
