August 4, 2025

PCVRS supports Veterans in the Rehabilitation Services and Vocational Assistance Program (RSVP) to deliver the best support, we consider each Veteran’s unique background, experience, and needs. Women Veterans have served Canada with dedication and courage, and PCVRS is dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate support to help them thrive as they transition to life after service.

A Network of Dedicated Professionals

We're proud that our team of rehabilitation service specialists and professionals includes dedicated women, who bring a valuable point of view to RSVP. Our diverse teams enhance the quality of care and support we offer. It helps ensure that women Veterans, and others, feel understood, respected, and empowered.

Our Holistic Approach

At PCVRS, we understand rehabilitation is deeply personal. That's why we use a holistic approach. We look at all aspects of your well-being―physical, mental, and emotional and go beyond treating symptoms to focus on your overall rehabilitation needs and resilience.

Each Participant has unique rehabilitation needs and goals. You may want to regain strength, manage pain, overcome a mental health challenge, or develop new skills for employment. We work with you to create a Rehabilitation Plan that’s tailored to you.

Flexibility is Key to Success

A cornerstone of our approach is to meet Veterans ‘where they are’. We understand that fitting rehabilitation into your life may be hard because of family responsibilities or other commitments. We work closely with each Participant to develop a plan that integrates into your life so you can actively participate.

We're committed to making the program accessible, effective, and empowering for everyone and supporting you with appointment times that fit with your schedule. Virtual sessions may be easier to attend if you live in a remote area or have mobility challenges. We tailor our approach so you can actively participate and get the most from your Rehabilitation Plan.

Testimonial

“Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) Rehabilitation Services and Vocational Assistance Program (Rehabilitation Program) saved my life, and I am grateful for the empowering opportunities afforded to me in successfully navigating my Military-to-Civilian Transition (MCT). With support from VAC and a case manager who championed my autonomy, I am forever grateful for the clarity and strength that emerged as I began to realize my sense of purpose post-service and regained my sense of dignity.”
