Mental Health America of Hendricks County proudly announces our new Open Door Social Club for veterans.

Sponsored by IU Health, the MHAHC social club is offered on the second and fourth Fridays of the month from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at their office in Avon.

"The inaugural meeting was on July 8," according to Lael Hill, Executive Director of MHAHC. The office is at 75 Queensway Drive, just west of Ind. 267 (Avon Ave.) off Rockville Road (US 36).

The Social Club is "a place for veterans to meet with their peers, learn a new skill, or cook a meal while providing information on community resources," Hill said. "And the best part is – it's free."

"There are no fees or dues. You can come and go as you like," Mrs. Hill continued. "Our veterans served our country, and now we will serve them."

MHAHC's social club allows veterans to sit and chat with fellow veterans, play games, take computer classes in the computer lab, and participate in art therapy and music expression (art supplies and instruments provided).
