Veterans:
Reach Out for support when you need it
Suicide
Prevention Month, held each September, is a good time to remember
that you don’t have to go through anything alone. Reach out.
Resources are available this month and all year to help you face
life's challenges.
This
year’s Suicide Prevention Month theme, Reach Out, reminds Veterans to
take a moment and reach out for support when you need it..
 Why I get my health care at VA:
Army Veteran Woodi
Army
Veteran Woodi dealt with pain by taking medication for years until
she found an alternative: regular yoga at the Salt Lake City VA.
The
program is only one of many alternative therapies designed to help
Veterans improve their quality of life. Woodi and her yoga
instructor, Yael, sat down to talk about their experiences..

 Veterans can receive Pfizer
COVID-19 booster
Some
Veterans, spouses and caregivers can receive a Pfizer-BioNTech
COVID-19 vaccine booster shot from VA.
In
line with recommendations from the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration and Centers for Disease Control, only people who
have already received a full series of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine
at least six months ago have been authorized to receive a Pfizer booster
shot.
