Community Members May Schedule Appointments on Thursdays at California University of Pennsylvania

California University of Pennsylvania will offer free services to military veterans and their families through Cal U’s Office of Military and Veterans Affairs.
Area residents who have served in any branch of the military are eligible to attend counseling sessions. Their dependents and family members also may receive counseling. University enrollment is not required to receive these services.

Appointments are available from 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. Thursdays on these dates: April 6, 13, 20 and 28; and May 4.

Licensed clinical social worker Abbie Lieberum, from the Department of Veterans Affairs’ McKeesport Veterans Center, will meet with clients on the third floor of Manderino Library, near Cal U’s Office of Military and Veterans Affairs, on the main campus in California, PA.

Pay-by-meter parking is available nearby in Lot 17, behind the Natali Student Union.

Services include individual and marriage counseling, readjustment counseling, and counseling for drug and alcohol issues, bereavement, and military sexual trauma.
Counseling also is available, as needed, for Cal U veterans and community members with loved ones who have been deployed.

“We have developed a relationship with the Vet Center in McKeesport that will provide service to the more than 200,000 veterans who live in southwestern Pennsylvania,” says Capt. Robert Prah, director of Military and Veterans Affairs at Cal U.
