In recognition of Suicide Prevention Month, the Butler VA Health Care System is raising awareness of its mental health resources available for veterans.

“Veterans are driven and resilient, but everyone needs help sometimes,” said Sharon Coyle, acting director of the Butler VA. “Whether veterans are looking for peer-to-peer support, clinical care, counseling or something else, VA is here to help. VA and community resources can help veterans through life’s challenges.”

The VA asks veteran supporters to reach out and offer support to veterans, and encourage veterans they know to ask for help when they need it.

Veterans, their families and caregivers can access information of VA benefits and service by calling 1-800-MyVA411 (800-698-2411).
