For most veterans, finding a good job after military service is critical to making a successful return to civilian life and being able to support themselves and their families. DAV is committed to giving veterans every advantage as they look for meaningful employment. With RecruitMilitary and Veteran Recruiting we co-host career fairs all over the country to introduce veterans and their spouses directly to employers seeking the unique talents of veterans. We also connect veterans to job training and job assistance programs to help them be as marketable as possible. Getting veterans back to work is one of the most important ways DAV is giving back to the men and women who served.

Helping All Veterans

DAV helps veterans and their families access the full range of benefits available to them. Our professional team of advocates, all veterans themselves, provides free counseling and represents veterans when dealing with the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense and other government agencies. We help veterans and their families successfully file claims for VA disability compensation, rehabilitation and education programs, pensions, death benefits, employment and training programs. In 2015 alone, DAV helped veterans and family members obtain more than $4.04 billion in new and retroactive benefits.

As the number of women serving in the military has grown dramatically, so too has the number of female veterans. Today, 10% of America’s veterans are women, numbering almost 2.3 million. The number of women entering the VA health system has doubled in the last five years, and it is expected to double again in the next five years. DAV has worked for years to ensure that women veterans get the resources and care they need to meet their unique challenges.
