Santa Cruz Community Veterans Program
Every veteran deserves to have a choice in what kind of
help and support they want to pursue when adjusting to life after combat. For
those who do not want to plug into VA programs, or who feel they need a
non-medical model, the United Veterans Council offers an alternative - a
community program designed for veterans and their families. More information can
be found by
phone 831-454-0434
