Residential Programs for Veterans

Mental Health Residential Rehabilitation Treatment Programs (MH RRTP) provide a 24/7 therapeutic setting for Veterans suffering from mental illness, substance use disorders, and severe psychological problems (homelessness, unemployment, etc.). RRTPs help Veterans work on improving their quality of life, maintaining their health, and participating in their communities. They also offer treatment for mental illness, including PTSD and substance use disorders. These programs combine peer and professional support and emphasize psychosocial rehabilitation services that increase a Veterans personal responsibility to become as independent as possible. MH RRTPs provide residential rehabilitative and clinical care to eligible Veterans who have a wide range of problems, illnesses, or rehabilitative care needs. These can include mental health, substance use disorder, co-morbid medical, homelessness, vocational, educational, or social needs.
