Supporting veterans since 2015
ABOUT US
We’re an organisation that’s dedicated to improving the physical and mental health of veterans.
We pride ourselves on delivering a range of evidence-based programs and services that support veterans to live a better life by improving their mental and physical health. Our flagship program, the Veterans’ Better Life Program, has become a leading front-line service for veterans.
We created the program back in 2015 because we saw a gap in traditional veteran health care. Veterans were typically treated in silos that didn’t address known barriers to getting help. We saw an opportunity to do things differently, to do things better. We created an integrated multidisciplinary program that’s tailored and treats each person as a whole.
The success of the program led us to expand to multiple locations on the Gold Coast, Brisbane, and Tweed Shire and to develop a range of supporting add on services to help veterans live a better life.

What our clients say about us!
Would just like to express my respect for the VHA crew! Going back 18 months to when I first started to attend their program at Goodlife Nerang, I was struggling with addiction, mental health issues and an overall lack of motivation to live a healthy lifestyle. They helped me get back on track, I still have my problems, but my quality of life is better than it ever has been since my discharge from defence. I highly recommend them to any veteran young or old! If you live on the Gold Coast and you want help to improve your quality of life I suggest you get in to see them!!

Such a blessing that VHA is available to Veterans. The Coordinators have provided me with a great program for body and mind. Good to be in a routine again. Thank you.

This organisations is awesome. Some really great people. If you live in proximity to the Gold Coast, do yourself a service and say g’day to these guys. Will work around any injury/illness with qualified support. I’m moving to Melbourne, but will sure miss these guys.

The team at Veteran Health Association have worked with me for the past 2 years helping me with recovery from my service related injuries and reintegration back into the workforce. They offer a professional service that is unmatched from any other provider around. Their team have helped 100’s of veterans of all ages and services and continue to break ground where others have failed. Thank you VHA!
