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