Nguyen Van Rinh, President of the Vietnam Association of Victims of Agent Orange/Dioxin (VAVA), said the house looks to help ease the pains of AO victims and facilitate their integration into the community.
The house provides a venue for recreational activities for AO victims and their children before, during and after treatment and study at the center.
Rinh also recommended officials and staff at the center put the house to good use, along with the community helping taking care of victims better.
The construction of the house began in March, 2016. It has an area of 760 sq.m, featuring a 200-seat hall, a two-storey exhibition building, and a library.
The house was sponsored by the Military Bank.
