• to develop and support effective programs for returning veterans that provide effective service systems that address PTSD, mental health, substance use disorders, homelessness, unemployment, criminal justice and other challenges faced by returning veterans; and;
• to support and strengthen organizations and programs  that seek to improve the wellbeing of underserved populations by providing financial, management and technical assistance.
