Vet Center Services
Document Number: 2012-6004
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-03-13
Agency: Department of Defense, Department of Veterans Affairs
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to establish in regulation the readjustment counseling currently provided in VA's Vet Centers to certain veterans of the Armed Forces and members of their immediate families, and to implement provisions of the Caregivers and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act of 2010 (the 2010 Act) regarding readjustment counseling. Although for several decades VA has provided readjustment counseling to veterans and members of their immediate families, a regulation is now explicitly required by the 2010 Act. The 2010 Act makes certain current members of the Armed Forces who served on active duty in Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi Freedom eligible for the readjustment counseling that VA currently provides to veterans and members of their immediate families. In addition, the proposed regulation would authorize Vet Centers to provide referral and advice to individuals who are not otherwise eligible for such counseling, and served in a theater of combat operations or in an area during a period of hostilities in that area, in accordance with the 2010 Act.
