Vet Centers

Who We Are?

We are the people in VA who welcome home war Veterans with honor by providing quality readjustment counseling in a caring manner.  Vet Centers understand and appreciate Veterans’ war experiences while assisting them and their family members toward a successful post-war adjustment in or near their community. We understand, and most of all, we care!  Learn more about the Vet Center Program.

Utah Mobile Vet Center

 
The Mobile Vet Center (MVC) is a new program of the Readjustment Counseling Service more commonly known as the Vet Center.  Vet Centers are a division of the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) with about 300 “brick and mortar” Vet Centers and 50 Mobile Vet Centers around the country.  Vet Centers provide readjustment counseling to combat Veterans and their families.  Vet Center Readjustment Counselors also provide military sexual trauma counseling, and, grief and bereavement counseling for families struggling with the loss of an immediate family member serving in a combat theater.

New Location:  More Days, More Service, More Convenient

The Utah Vet Centers is pleased to announce that our services for the Ogden area have expanded and relocated.  Our Readjustment Counseling services for Combat Veterans and their families have been relocated to the George E. Wahlen Ogden Veterans Home located at 1102 North 1200 West, Ogden, Utah (located next to the Browning U. S. Army Reserve Training Center).  We now have four Readjustment Counselors that will be at the Ogden Veterans Home Monday through Friday.
 
The expansion and relocation of our services replaces the Utah Mobile Vet Center (MVC) visit to the Ogden area every Thursday.   The MVC was located at the north end of East Ridgeline Drive (near the intersection of Washington Boulevard and Harrison Boulevard, and, four blocks from the VA Community Clinic) in South Ogden, Utah.
