The guys at the OC Vet Cent. are great people. My reasoning​ for a low score is​ appointments​ and…read morethe front desk. It is very difficult to have consistency​ in your therapy​ when appointments​ are so limited with your counselor​. If you are a working individual or a student it makes it even more complicated. The guys at the front desk are polite and nice, but terrible at relaying​ messages; therefore is impossible to communicate directly with your counselor​ since you cannot have their email nor their direct line. I know these​ guys are overworked; they keep taking clients under very low staffing. I know low staffing is out​ of their control, but accepting more clients when they cannot keep up​ with the ones they have is not OK. I felt obligated to quit​ after having such a difficult time booking the ​appointment​​s and delaying my therapy; at times I felt worst having to relive it and dealing with it for two or three weeks until my next appointment​. I always felt in a rush, and not enough time to deal with all the mess in my head. They say many things that they cannot keep. Therefore, I felt, though their intentions might be honorable; they were more damaging​ to me than helpful​. But remember, everyone's experience is different.​

The Post is well maintained and the bartenders here pour their drinks generously. The members and…read morethe staff are very welcoming and the events here are always a good time to be around. The back room that they rent for private parties is spacious. The tables they provide are well cared for and chairs provided are soft and comfortable. The full bar is a great highlight and they have a wide selection of beer and wine. The bar has the full compliment of both basic and premium choices for alcohol, there is a drink for every taste as well as the most popular sodas. My times here have always been enjoyable and they have a well kept smoking patio and multiple tvs throughout the establishment. All military Veterans are welcome here and if you rent their back room for your events the management here is truly fantastic.

Her team offered to help our planner clean up, she graciously accepted and then we were told they did all of the cleanup and therefore they were keeping our deposit. We were also told that we only purchased three drinks from the bar and they were forced to have a bartender there even though we did not ask for one. Make sure you read your contract and make sure that you take pictures, and do not accept any of their help or they will keep your deposit.

Our…read morefather is a Korean War vet w dementia in memory care; our mother w Alzheimer's lives with me with daily care. It's expensive and we were looking at money running out in the next couple years. So I was tasked w contacting, following up and completing the application thru Veterans Advocacy Associates. It was A LOT of info gathering, but well worth the additional benefit of $2200/month. Free money! Kurt guided me with the forms and documents I needed to gather and he finished the rest. It took me about a month to get everything together and Kurt an additional 2 weeks and the package was finally sent. And in another 2 weeks, he called and asked me to check the bank account. Voila! He said we got the max amount in the shortest amount of time in his experience. Yes, I possibly could have done this without their assistance, but they've done it before and knew the ropes. Sure, the help was free. But, in the end, we're getting financial assistance that we really didn't know existed or was available. For their efforts, we donated approx 70% of the first amount back to VAA for their time & help. Would def recommend Veterans Advocacy Associates!

CARELESS AND INCOMPETENT…read more I called the VSO last year for enrollment into the service they advertised on their webpage. They have repeatedly been incompetent, unresponsive and derelict in their duties. Their team members trip over each other, unable to perform basic functions. They say they will gather information and get back to me. They neglected to do that so I called them again to follow-up, now they werent aware of the situation and couldnt figure out what other members in their team were doing. They're confused and mismanaged. The VSO is all for show, telling people that they're helpinh veterans but they dont care to do so and cant even figure out what their employees they work with in the office are doing. They make very little actual effort and do not care to be of service. The minimal effort made fails in principle after multiple calls and visits it became clear they care more about givine the appearance of being helpful and telling other people that they help veterans rather than actually making effort. They need an overhaul of the management team. Their website says their director is Adam French, but its clear that he does not supervise his derelict team.
