There is a booklet, titled Veterans' laws and benefits, it is a booklet every Veteran should get their hands on.

One item, page 19 & 20, Outreach, Counseling and Trama resources. One such center is located in Gardner, MA, at 268 Central Street, Gardner, MA 01440 - telephone 978-632-9601.

These centers provide a number of services and help to veterans and these outreach services are available to all veterans, you do not have to meet the states "veteran" definition under MGL chapter 4, section 7 clause 43. (yeah, the government always makes it hard to use things you have been told and / or signed paperwork that states you have earned these things) If you are a veteran and you go to say, town hall, to meet with town veteran service officer and they are nowhere to be found, the above outreach center is a place you can go or call to get help, assistance, information and knowledge, you really did earn these things.
