Pennsylvania Department of Military and Veterans Affairs announces outreach vans
ANNVILLE, Pa. (WHTM) — The Pennsylvania Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMVA) announces that Mobile Veterans Outreach Vans are available throughout the state to help veterans.
The vans are in place to assist veterans in getting information and initiating benefit claim paperwork through the assistance of DMVA-accredited veteran service officers.
“We pledge to see that every veteran who is eligible for benefits related to their dedicated service receives those benefits,” said Maj. Gen. Mark Schindler, Pennsylvania’s adjutant general and head of the DMVA. “When our outreach vans travel to events in communities throughout Pennsylvania, veterans are provided with a convenient way to apply for benefits at no cost thanks to our team of accredited veteran service officers.”
The vans offer no-cost on-site assistance with veterans benefits thanks to an accredited veteran service office. Additionally, the DMVA also staffs outreach teams through Pennsylvania communities that build relationships with advocates and connect veterans with the services that they need.
