NYS Services & Benefits for Veterans
No
matter where a veteran lives or when they return home from deployment,
they will be able to easily access accurate information on services and
benefits through the NYS Veterans Affairs’
What’s Next website. In an effort to make access to services simpler, a “no wrong door” policy is being developed.
