Veteran Mental Health Services

Comprehensive Mental Health Support for Veterans

DLC’s Veterans’ Services Program is dedicated to supporting veterans facing behavioral health challenges, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, and substance use issues—common among combat veterans returning from deployment. Our program focuses on building strong partnerships with veterans and their families, empowering them to enhance their well-being at home, in the community, at work, and in educational settings. These services are provided in collaboration with Home Base Florida and Warrior Homes of Collier County.

If you or someone you know needs immediate help, call our 24-hour phone line at (239) DLC-HELP (239-352-4357) or dial 911.

Veterans’ Case Management

Peer-to-Peer Support and Resource Coordination

Our Veterans’ Case Management service connects veterans with essential mental health, medical, and social services. Veterans are paired with a Case Manager who provides peer-to-peer support, helping them navigate services like SNAP benefits, Medicaid/Medicare, and transitional or long-term housing.

The Case Manager is part of the Veteran Peer Access Network, ensuring veterans are supported by those who truly understand their needs.

We help Veterans experiencing:

  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
  • Psychosis and Disconnection from Reality
  • Substance use concerns
  • Stress Management and Life Adjustment Issues
  • Suicidal thoughts, severe depression, or anxiety
