Alcohol and drug abuse programs for Military Veterans are central for the mental health 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 important that Veterans get the assistance they need due to such high rates of suicide also associated with these disorders among Veterans.
