 IVBHN Goals

To develop veteran cultural competence among providers of care.

In collaboration with our partners, we will provide training, a stage model of competence, designations for providers, and a means of accessing organizational and cultural competence to maintain this focus. Family Education Meetings will reduce feelings of  helplessness and hopelessness that contribute to depression and suicidal ideation and will assist families in building additional networks of support.  

To connect five selected community mental health centers as access sites to the veterans administration center tele-behavioral health hub.

Formation of this network represents a unique military/partnership to increase behavioral health access for rural veterans through tele-behavioral health spoke access points to prevent emotional deterioration while maintaining access to medications, resulting in more positive outcomes for veterans.  The following ASPIN members are access sites:

- Four County Counseling Center, Logansport, IN
- Bowen Center, Warsaw, IN
- Wabash Valley Alliance, Crawfordsville, IN
- Centerstone of Indiana, Rushville, IN
- Hamilton Center,  Bloomfield, IN
