The Butler Veterans Behavioral Health Council provides a dynamic opportunity for VA staff and Veterans of VA Behavioral Health Care services to promote greater understanding of and collaboration with each other. Established in 2008, the Council works to provide real and meaningful choices for Veterans and their family members.

The mission of the Butler Behavioral Health Council at VA Butler Healthcare is to establish a true partnership between the Veterans and their families, VA mental health professionals, community partners and Veteran service organizations.
