Veterans Service Offices
Overview
Through our network of regional Veterans Service Offices (VSO), the NJ Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMAVA) provides the state's Veterans and their dependents with information and guidance in filing claims. Trained Veterans Service Officers at these offices also assist Veterans with issues pertaining to employment, education, burial, counseling, housing, social and medical services, and other areas of concern to Veterans and their families. DMAVA also conducts outreach events in the community where VSOs are present to help and assist any Veteran. Please refer to the Veterans Outreach Schedule.
We have also provided direct links to the NJ county-operated Veterans Service Offices and the major national Veterans Service Organizations. You can use those links to find Veteran Service Officers near you.
