- The division signposts the federal healthcare system, the state VA healthcare system, state crisis counselling for veterans, the federal veterans crisis line with its call, text, chat and TTY routes, a state crisis line, federal mental health services, and vet centre counselling.

Not sure whether that describes you?
Answer a few questions about this benefit specifically — we only ask what this one actually depends on, and we stop as soon as we know.
How to claim it
- 1In a crisis use the crisis line first — call, text, chat or TTY. This division coordinates care; it is not a crisis line.
- 2Contact the named person for the problem you have rather than a general line. The department publishes a suicide prevention coordinator and a social worker separately, with their own mobile numbers.
- 3Ask the social worker about transitional living and housing. Both are named as programme areas of this division rather than being handled elsewhere.
- 4If the obstacle is transport, this is the division that runs the rides — ask for the transportation coordinator by role.
- 5A family member can approach the division in their own right; it advocates for veterans and their families in terms.
- 6Ask what the division can do to unblock a stalled referral inside the federal healthcare system. Advocacy on healthcare needs is its stated purpose.
- Form
- No form — contact the named staff member
- File with
- Department of Veterans’ Services — Healthcare Coordination Division
- No renewal
- Once granted it does not need renewing.

Why only one source type: The division is the department’s own and is described on the department’s own page. The state legislature host refused every request this session.
