VA will soon open additional "Vet Centers" in Atlanta and Phoenix.

VA's Readjustment Counseling Service (RCS) Vet Center program is a special program designed to help veterans exposed to the unique stress of serving in combat.

VA has 207 community-based Vet Centers across the country.

Last year, the Vet Centers had 1,046,628 visits by 132,853 veterans and their families.

VA Secretary Nicholson also announced that VA is moving the employment status of 50 additional Global War on Terror Outreach Specialists nationwide from temporary to permanent.
