About
Disabled American Veterans (DAV) is a veterans service organization. Its About page describes the mission as helping veterans and their families access the full range of available benefits, advocating on Capitol Hill, and educating the public about veterans' needs. Its Get Help Now page offers a lookup for the national service office closest to a visitor by zip code, and describes VA benefits help for filing claims. The same page says DAV benefits advocates are located on more than 100 military installations and in offices around the country to assist transitioning service members. DAV also operates a volunteer medical transportation program for veterans.
