Shaping VA’s Role in Veteran Well-Being

Veteran Voices Drive Change.

The VA is exploring new ways to support veterans after service, including preventive wellness, access to service animals, and community programs. This survey asks for your perspective on whether the VA should help expand these opportunities and if veterans see value in this kind of preventive approach.
