Mental Health Strategy

VAC and National Defence have made significant progress on implementing a mental health strategy to improve access to assessment and treatment for CF members and Veterans with an operational stress injury. This strategy involves:

• a network of mental health assessment and treatment facilities,
• educational forums,
• a continuing education program, and
• research efforts.

Together, this will develop high quality, standardized mental health care for CF members and Veterans.

In this issue you will learn more about some of the strategies which are part of this initiative.
