VET EXPRESS

            The $75,000 van is equipped with computers and printers to allow DVA veteran service officers to initiate claims for veteran’s benefits.  The service officers will also provide general information and assistance.  The van is handicapped-accessible and has two work stations along with a waiting space. The Vet Express will visit convenient locations such as town halls, libraries, state facilities and shopping centers to provide direct customer service to the state’s veterans.  No appointment is needed to visit the van at any of its scheduled locations.

            In addition to a monthly schedule of visits to towns throughout the state, organizations can request the Vet Express for special events where large groups of veterans may gather.  Organizations interested in scheduling the Vet Express for special events should contact the DVA Office of Advocacy and Assistance at (860) 721-5915 or visit “The Vet Express” at www.ct.gov/ctva
