Attention Veterans: Vet Centers Are Here to Help

On the first and third Fridays of every month, the Vet Center in Northeast Philadelphia hosts a bilingual (Spanish/English) representative from the VA Regional Office who can help veterans apply for benefits, check the status of a claim or just answer questions about VA benefits. The Vet Center is located at 101 E. Olney Ave. For more information, please call 215-924-4670. Vet Centers across the country provide a broad range of counseling, assessment and referral services to combat Veterans and their families. Services include individual, group, family, bereavement and military sexual trauma counseling. We also provide substance abuse assessment as well as employment, education and medical referrals. All services are free of cost and are strictly confidential. Other area Vet Centers are located in Center City Philadelphia, Bristol and Norristown, PA, as well as Ewing and Ventnor, NJ. Stop by the location that is most convenient for you. More information about the Vet Center program can be found at vetcenter.va.gov.
