Alcohol and drug abuse programs for Military Vets are central for the mental well-being and overall stability of Veterans of all branches of the armed forces. Because alcohol and drug abuse and other mental health problems are experienced at higher than average rates among Vets, it is crucial that Veterans get the assistance they need because of such high rates of suicide also associated with these disorders among our Vets.
