VA staff at the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center have been on site since Hurricane Harvey began Friday providing care for Veteran patients.
Services such as GI Bill, home loan servicing and VA's Specially Adapted Housing grant program are standing by to assist Veteran affected by the storm and unprecedented flooding in the Houston area.
If your VA medical center or outpatient center is closed due to Hurricane Harvey, contact the next closest facility and see if they are open and can help.
The VA Integrated Operations Center was activated to coordinate efforts from VA’s central office in Washington. Local and regional assets in Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana are also mobilized to respond and assist those VA facilities most impacted by the storm.
As Hurricane Harvey barreled in to the East Texas coastline, Friday, the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System call center activated, to support Houston's Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center, as they prepared for the storm.
