Natl Assoc'n of County Veterans Service Officers

About

The National Association of County Veterans Service Officers (NACVSO) is an association whose homepage says its workforce represents approximately 2,400 county and state employees from 29 states and several Native American Tribes. The homepage says these service officers work with the Department of Veterans Affairs on claims development and on the transition of service members to civilian life. Its mission text describes pursuing benefits for veterans and eligible family members through education, training and advocacy. The site has a "Find a Service Officer" menu item and pages for county and state veterans service officers. Individual officers are generally county or state employees, so availability varies by locality.
