Public Invited to Attend Vet Center Dedication Ceremony

The new site provides a more accessible location just off I-75 for residents of the 15 counties served with expanded parking; larger outdoor space for outreach, recreational, and whole health activities; and swing space for partnerships with Veteran Service organizations.

The public is invited to attend an open house and dedication ceremony for the new space at 6387 Westside Saginaw Rd in Bay City, MI on August 20th.  The open house will be held from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., with a short dedication ceremony at noon. 

The Great Lakes Bay Vet Center offers confidential help for Veterans, service members, and their families at no cost in a non-medical setting. Services include counseling for needs such as depression, posttraumatic stress disorder, and the psychological effects of military sexual trauma. The Vet Center can also connect individuals with more support in VA and the community. 

“We are pleased to continue and expand our support of area Veterans, service members, and their families in this beautiful new space,” said Holly VanBuren, Great Lakes Bay Vet Center Director. “Since moving, we have already seen an increase in Vet Center utilization and are hopeful that new clients will continue to find peace, comfort, and help here.”
