About U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Domiciliary Care Program
The Domiciliary Care Program operates under the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and is located in Anchorage, Alaska. This program is the oldest healthcare program operating under the Veterans Affairs health network. Designed to support veterans experiencing life challenges such as homelessness or substance use, the facility provides accessible treatment and support so you can lead a productive and fruitful life.
Your VA benefits can cover the cost of care offered through this program. If you need help enrolling in veteran benefits or obtaining coverage, there are admission specialists who can help you as well.
Access to Alcohol and Drug Treatment Services
The VA Department does a really good job of providing accessible and integrated care so that no matter who you are or where you are, there are services that can help you. Here at the Anchorage Domiciliary, if you are struggling with drug and alcohol use or have a chemical dependency, you can get connected to the treatment before you enter the rehabilitation program.
For example, you’ll have access to medically supervised detox, medication assisted treatment, and other clinical care approaches. It’s designed to help your body reach a point of stabilization so you can focus fully on your recovery.
Wrap Around Care
The Domiciliary is designed to provide a safe and supportive place where veterans can turn to during their greatest time of need. While living here, you’ll work with a care team, social workers, and dedicated mental and medical health professionals who will support you in the way you need. This is an environment where you can connect with others facing similar challenges as you and build meaningful relationships so that you have a network of support to lean on when you need it most.

Inpatient and residential programs provide round-the-clock medical and emotional support as you live at the treatment facility. This level of care may be recommended if you have severe addictions or mental health conditions since it removes outside distractions and allows you to focus solely on therapy. |
In outpatient therapy, you’ll attend therapy sessions several times each week while living at home. This is ideal if you have a strong support system and a lower risk of relapse. Outpatient treatment offers flexibility to maintain work, school or family obligations. |
