VETERANS

Although being a military service member is an honorable career, it comes with a cost. Family sacrifices, constant transitions, rigid structure,
and personal safety all are part of the job description of our prior and present veterans. In Kings County, we have over 13,000 Veterans and the  need for serving these Veterans is increasing. Out of this need, services for Veterans has evolved

Kings County Behavioral Health is proud to offer services to anyone who has worn a military uniform. All services are free of charge and were developed to meet the unique needs of service members, veterans and their families.
Veterans Support Group
This Support Group meets on a biweekly basis, which serves to provide veterans with information, guest speakers, camaraderie, and sharing of universal experiences. There is no cost to attend this or the Trauma Group. The size of the groups are kept small to allow discussion and sharing among other fellow Veterans. We serve meals and soft drinks to all our participants. Call 852-2444 for more info.
