Georgia Department of Veterans Service

We are extremely proud of the Georgians who have honorably served our country over the centuries. It is now our honor to serve you. The Georgia Department of Veterans Service is an agency of state government created for the purpose of advising, counseling, and assisting Georgia's veterans and their families in receiving their rightful benefits under the vast and complex framework of veterans' laws. No veterans' benefits are granted automatically – you must apply for them! We exist to help you do exactly that. Upon discharge from active military service, you may have been counseled and perhaps you received information pertaining to some of the benefits to which you may be entitled under the law. Our job is to explain in detail these benefits and, if entitled, assist you free of charge in obtaining them. Service is in our name and service is our work. Providing quality and effective service to Georgia veterans and their dependents is and always will be our number one mission. In doing so, we pledge to stay current and adjust quickly and carefully to new laws, be diligent in their application, and continually improve our efficiency in service to veterans and their families. If you wish to talk to a Veterans Field Service Officer near you about federal and state benefits to which you may be entitled, you will find a map and contact information for all GDVS field offices at http://veterans.georgia.gov/field-offices.
