The BRAVE Act mandates the Department of Veterans Affairs to create a mental health patient outreach system for veterans.
The BRAVE Act, or Be Ready to Assist Veterans in Extremis Act, requires the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to establish a patient outreach system for mental health care. This system will ensure that veterans enrolled in the annual patient enrollment system and who have experienced traumatic or highly stressful events can receive information and resources about available mental health care services. The Secretary must coordinate this system with the Transition Assistance Program of the Department of Defense and establish it within two years of the Act's enactment.
