"Compassionate Heroes"

The staff at M.V.O.C. are Heaven sent. They are the most Compassionate and knowledgeable people I've ever met through the VA system. They helped me save my life when I was in a very dark place they showed me I was worth it. I have made forever friends here, people that I will stay in contact for the rest of my days.
