Special Programs
Several of the Department's
programs target specific veteran populations, and we hope you will take advantage of the
resources they offer.
- Disabled Veterans
This page includes information on Web site accessibility, the President's Committee on
Employment of People with Disabilities, and links to sites that deal address other
accessibility issues.
- Homeless Veterans
The homeless program promotes the development and provision of housing and other
supportive services. Homeless veterans achieve residential stability, increase their skill
levels and/or income, and obtain greater self-determination.
- Information Quality Guidelines
These guidelines describe VA's policy for ensuring the quality of information that
it disseminates to the public and set forth the administrative procedure by which an
affected person requests correction of disseminated information. VA received no
information quality correction requests; during FY 04, and one (1) during FY 03.
- Military Services
Outreach to active duty service members and veterans is an integral part of the Veterans
Benefits Administration. We provide information that will prove helpful to the separating
service member as well as the veteran.
- Minority Veterans
The unique circumstances and special needs of minority veterans are addressed by the
Center for Minority Veterans' staff.
- Women Veterans
The Center for Women Veterans ensures women veterans have access to VA benefits and services and that VA health care and benefits programs are responsive to the gender-specific needs of women veterans.
- Veterans in Business
The Center for Veterans Enterprise promotes business ownership and expansion for veterans. They provide resource assistance for veterans and service-disabled veterans who are considering starting or expanding a business. The staff works with all federal agencies, large contractors and not-for-profit assistance organizations.
