Welcome to the website of the Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs (WDVA).

I often speak about my four-point vision for WDVA. First and foremost, I believe that we must fully honor our commitment to Wisconsin’s veterans. As long as I am Secretary, that commitment to Wisconsin’s veterans will never waiver.

Second, I firmly believe that WDVA must always ensure stakeholder involvement, working hard to extend and expand the department’s critically important relationships with all the veterans’ service organizations, county veterans service officers, key leaders, VA officials, and many others.

Third, I believe that WDVA must continue strong and positive legislative partnerships, at the state and federal levels and on both sides of the aisle, working in a non-partisan manner to ensure that the needs and goals of Wisconsin’s veterans continue to be met. Finally, my vision for WDVA is to ensure the solvency of the Veterans Trust Fund.

As always, please contact WDVA directly if we can be of assistance.
