What is the VB Strong Center?

The VB Strong Program is a grant funded service that offers support, resources, and/or case management services at no cost to the victims of the 5/31/19 shooting at the Virginia Beach Municipal Center. Because the grant is time limited, the goal of the VBSC team is to work with you to address your immediate needs of and making a connection with other services and providers to provide long term care and support.
