This is big news, however I think I'll continue to steer clear of my local VA. Last year I contacted the crisis hotline and was referred to my local VA. The VA called me and left a voicemail that was barely coherent. Upon calling back, the lady who answered was more interested in letting me know that the name I could barely make out was incorrect and no one worked there by that name. Finally got transferred to someone in mental health only for them to tell me I'm not in their system and I'd have to apply through a packet they'd mail me. I'm still here but I wonder how many aren't because of the VA.
