The Office of Military and Veterans' Liaison Services is a health and wellness resource center for military service members, veterans and their families.

Long Island has 150, 000 veterans in Nassau and Suffolk counties, making it the 10th largest veteran population in the country. These service members often return home from military duty to become business and community leaders, inspiring others with their work ethic and patriotism, but the transition isn’t always easy.

Many of these veterans are suffering from reactions to the intense and extreme conditions they experienced while serving in the military. These stress-related conditions include post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, sleep disorders, irritability and headaches, all of which can lead to relationship strains, which affect family members as well.
