The Day Treatment Center is an outpatient program under the
auspices of VA Behavioral Health Care Line and serves
approximately 100 Veterans with an average daily attendance of
35-40. The program is in operation Monday - Friday 9:00A.M. to
3:00P.M.
Mission:
The Day Treatment Center is an outpatient facility whose
mission is to assist the veteran to live as independently as
possible in his/her community. The emphasis is on helping the
veteran to develop the skills necessary for independent
community living. Therefore, support, challenge, involvement,
structure and feedback are seen as essential ingredients for the
growth and development of our veterans.
The funds donated by the VVA for 2004 were used to purchase a
new computer for the Veterans to use and for them learn how to
access information for their benefit, such as new claims.
Funds donated in the past have been used to purchased new
ceramic molds for the ceramic shop. VVA has donated tickets for
the Armed Forces Day Luncheon. When we moved to Mt. Hope Ave.
the VVA purchased 15 chairs for our group room.
Total Donation by VVA Chapter #20 since inception of the
donation is $3,000
