Mata testimony: Veterans Mental Health Coalition
Mata describes the Veterans Mental Health Coalition, which convenes practitioners, researchers, and advocates to discuss emerging research, identify barriers to care, and strengthen relationships across the veteran mental health ecosystem.
Coordination across the mental health community is equally important.
Through the Veterans Mental Health Coalition, DVS convenes mental health practitioners, researchers, and advocates, organizational leaders, and veterans serving partners to discuss the issues affecting veterans and military families.
These conversations allow us to examine emerging...
research, identify barriers to accessing care, discuss programs and treatment models, and strengthen relationships across the veteran mental health ecosystem.
No single organization has every answer.
Our role is to help build a network where veterans do not have to navigate these systems alone.
