More support on offer for veterans' well-being

From Morning Report, 6:16 am on 30 June 2022

The Returned and Services Association is welcoming a plan to support veterans' well-being - but says it has been a long time coming.

The new policy framework identifies veterans as a vulnerable group and provides guidelines for helping them and their families.

It shows veterans are likely to have higher rates of mental health issues, addiction and gambling problems, than the general population.
