Who We Are

 The Virginia Department of Veterans Services advocates for Virginia veterans and connects them to earned benefits and services. Information on current federal, state, and local veterans’ programs, entitlements, and referral services is available in Virginia through a network of 34 benefit service offices. All services are provided free of charge. For Benefit eligibility information, click here.

Health Benefits are provided by The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) including a broad spectrum of medical, surgical, and rehabilitative care to its customers. The goal of the Virginia Department of Veterans Services is to share information about these benefits and services to make it as easy as possible for you to receive the care you need.

Disability Compensation (Service Connection) is a monetary benefit paid to veterans who are disabled by injury or disease incurred or aggravated during active military service.

Non-service Connected Pension for veterans with low incomes who are permanently and totally disabled may be eligible for monetary support if they have 90 days or more of active military service, at least one day of which was during a period of war.
