Veterans

Veterans in Ohio have a broad set of behavioral health and other benefits, care, and support services available to them across our state. The primary resource for behavioral health and other services and benefits is the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), which can be accessed through 45 VA care locations throughout Ohio. There is also a growing number of local behavioral health providers who have received military and veteran cultural competency training and are working to support veterans in their community. In support of veterans’ broader needs, Ohio has 88 locally staffed County Veterans Services Offices (one in each county) that help veterans and their families gain access to federal, state, and local veteran benefits and services. Non-profit community and veteran organizations also play an important role in providing key services and support to Ohio’s veterans.
