There is a special event for veterans today, Monday, April 3rd from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the Walmart Parking lot in Benton. The address is 7309 Interstate 30 South, Benton, AR 72015.
The Little Rock Vet Center has a Mobile Vet Center (MVC) to provide outreach to the veterans in your county. The MVC resembles a super-sized recreational vehicle; it is 38-foot long and 13-foot 6 inches tall (takes up 5 parking spots).
The mission of the Readjustment Counseling Services is to provide information to Veterans in far-reaching rural areas on the services the Little Rock Vet Center has to offer. Services include:
- Individual Readjustment counseling,
- Group counseling,
- Military Sexual Trauma counseling,
- Bereavement counseling, Marital and Family counseling,
- Referrals,
- Substance Abuse Information and Referral,
- Community Education and
- Liaison with Community Agencies.
Outreach material includes brochures, informational booklets and benefit books, phone numbers to Vet Center, VA, VBA and other resources and contact numbers to County Veteran Service Officers (CVSO) in their county.
The main goal is to let the veterans know someone is here for them and to get the veterans connected to the right agencies to get the benefits they have earned.
