Veterans Affairs Launches Center For Compassionate Innovation; Releases Request For Proposals

In an effort to further assist and benefit our country's combat veterans, the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) has created the Center for Compassionate Innovation (CCI) to explore therapies that may improve and enhance veterans' physical and mental well-being. The Center will primarily focus on those veterans for whom conventional treatment is ineffective.

To further this objective, the VA is accepting proposals for innovative treatments to be added to their health care system of benefits for suicide prevention, traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, and chronic pain.
