To receive MST-related care, you don’t need to have reported the MST at the time or have other proof  that the MST happened. Veterans don't need to have a service-connected disability

rating, and you may be able to get MST-related care even if you aren’t eligible for other VA services.  HERE’S HOW TO ACCESS VA'S MST-RELATED SERVICES: * IF YOU HAVE A VA HEALTH CARE

PROVIDER, consider telling that person that you experienced a MST. All VA primary care and mental health providers complete training on MST and the treatment needs of people who've

experienced it. Your provider can offer treatment referrals and support as needed. * CALL THE SOUTHERN ARIZONA VA HEALTH CARE COORDINATOR. You can ask to speak with a provider of a specific

gender if that would make you feel more comfortable. Find a VA medical center near you * CONTACT A VET CENTER and ask to speak with someone about MST-related counseling. Find a Vet Center

near you * IF YOU’RE HOMELESS OR AT RISK OF BECOMING HOMELESS: * Contact the National Call Center for Homeless Veterans at 877-424-3838 for help 24/7. A trained VA counselor will offer

information about VA homeless programs, health care and other services in your area. The call is free and confidential. * Visit our website to learn about VA programs for Veterans who are

homeless. Learn about our homelessness programs * Call or visit your local VA Community Resource and Referral Center. Even if you don’t qualify for VA health care, our staff can help you

find non-VA resources you may qualify for in your community. Find your local Community Resource and Referral Center You can also call the VA general information hotline at 800-827-1000,
