The Butler VA Health Care System will host a virtual gathering later this week open to all Veterans, community groups, and the public.
A virtual Microsoft Teams COMPACT Act Community Awareness event is planned for Friday from 1 to 2 p.m.
The COMPACT Act allows Veterans in a suicidal crisis to go to any VA or non-VA health care facility for emergency health care at no cost. The online event will include VA representatives providing information about the care available as well as responding to questions.
Those interested in attending are asked to contact Rhonda Douthett at 878-271-6549 or by email at Rhonda.Douthett@va.gov.
