Purpose

The mission of WRIISC-DC is to offer services to combat veterans, families, and health care professionals. The staff at the center provide clinical care, education, and risk communication. WRIISC-DC also conducts research addressing potential environmental exposures and adverse health outcomes.

WRIISC-DC incorporates four program elements—clinical care, risk communication, research, and education—into a coherent conceptual model as shown below. The model is circular to emphasize the interrelated nature of Center activities, each supportive of the next, with the goal of enhancing the quality of our efforts and benefiting combat veterans.
