Melinda Rouille, MSW, joins the staff at the VA Vet Center in South Burlington
Melinda began working at the VA Vet Center in South Burlington starting on November 21, providing services to eligible combat and conflict Veterans and their families, covering a wide range of psychosocial needs, including education, employment, housing, medical treatment, vocational rehabilitation, personal and family adjustments and legal needs. Some of the responsibilities include planning and conducting readjustment counseling, outreach and follow up. This includes presenting and discussing clinical activities and philosophy of the readjustment counseling service with other professionals and members of the community, state and federal agencies. Melinda says of her new post, "As a veteran myself with two sons that have had multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, I have a keen interest in providing caring and thoughtful services to those that have served." Congratulations, Melinda! [Melinda is a member of the NASW-VT Board and serves as Treasurer-Elect.]
