Check out these fun photos of staff and volunteers working together to create welcome kits for Veterans at West LA VA! These kits will be waiting for the 74 new Veteran residents who will be moving into 651 MacArthur Ave, the newest building to open on campus.

A huge thanks to the santamonicaelkslodge906 for their generous donation of the items in these kits!

These kits provide Veterans with all the key items they need to settle in and feel at home, from bedsheets to towels to cleaning supplies and more. As more Veterans are calling the campus home, it’s becoming an increasingly supportive and vibrant community. 

Did you know that all of the Veteran units on campus come fully furnished for residents, and are pet friendly, too? 🐶 Each building is designed to provide Veterans with the tools and resources they need to thrive, including on site supportive services.

Veteran housing news! 🏠 Alongside our incredible community partners, we have permanently housed 1,832 Veterans thus far in the fiscal year! That means we have already exceeded our goal for the year, with two months left to report, and are on track to get more Veterans into housing than we did last year. 

So what does it mean to permanently house a Veteran? Permanent housing goes beyond temporary or interim measures. It’s a stable and long-term solution that provides Veterans with case management and supportive services to help them rebuild their lives.

In addition to housing 1,832 Veterans, we have also ensured 96.5% have remained stably housed, engaged with 1,885 unsheltered Veterans, and moved 987 unsheltered Veterans into interim or permanent housing. And we’ve completed four surge events to reach unsheltered Veterans in the community.

Thanks to all who have worked tirelessly to help Veterans get off the streets and into homes of their own. We will not rest until Veteran homelessness in Los Angeles is a thing of the past.

This beautiful, state-of-the-art new space opened its doors last Wednesday with a small ceremony, followed by staff welcoming the first Veteran patients. Thank you to the Marine Corps League, Chaplain Patrick Knoester, Sylvia from Blue Star Mothers of America, Air Force Veteran Jonathan Green, our amazing staff, and all who helped make opening day so special.

More than 600 of you came out to see our new Antelope Valley VA Clinic last Saturday, and it was a pleasure to welcome you! Swipe for some photos from the special day. 

Thanks to all of you for your patience as you waited on a long (but steadily moving!) line to tour the space. At 20,000 square feet and two stories, it takes a while to walk through!

A VA GLA physician-researcher reviewed data from a pre-existing study on reducing injuries from falls in elder patients. The study found differences in outcomes, despite similar treatments. This research highlights the importance of measuring uncertainty when using this kind of data, and may help improve the way VA uses data to help elder populations at risk for falls.

Complementary and Integrative Health (CIH) therapies such as acupuncture, chiropractic services, and medical massage have been shown to help reduce chronic pain.

VA GLA researchers studied Veteran survey data on their use of CIH therapies, levels of pain, and whether they received the treatment from VA or a non-VA provider in the community.

This study found that Veterans reported less pain with more visits to VA CIH providers than community providers, but had stronger relationships with community care medical massage than at VA.

Veterans benefited from both CIH therapies delivered through VA and the community, but results varied depending on the type of therapy. 2025-08-23 01:31:30 Complementary and Integra.. 6 -72% 1 +100%
