OHIOCARES

Brain Injury Association of Ohio (BIAOH) is pleased to be a member of OHIOCARES, a group created by Major General Wayt of the Ohio National Guard to respond to the needs of returning soldiers and their families.

OHIOCARES is a collaboration of state and local agencies supporting the behavioral health of returning OIF/OEF (Operation Iraqi Freedom / Operation Enduring Freedom) veterans and their families. Although the VA is the primary source of services for veterans, this partnership provides community based alternatives to veterans and their families.

OHIOCARES' purpose is to enhance the “safety net” community of behavioral health services available for military personnel and their families and to complement the services available through the Department of Veterans Affairs and Vet Centers by linkages with county alcohol, drug and mental health boards and behavioral health care providers, as well as advocacy and support organizations such as BIAOH.

Service Member, Family and Community Behavioral Health Resource Guide is provided to assist military service members, veterans, their families and community-based agencies with the service member’s behavioral health needs during the transition from active duty back to civilian life.
