Waco VA will host a Women Veteran’s Claims Clinic on Tuesday, August 27, 2024, from Noon to 6:00 p.m. at the Waco VA Regional Office, located at 1 Veterans Plaza, 701 Clay Ave., Waco, TX 76799.
Women Veterans will be able to speak one-on-one with expert staff from the Waco VA Regional Office who are ready to assist with specific questions regarding claims for VA benefits and the Veteran Readiness and Employment (VR&E) program.
Walk-ins are welcome, but appointments are encouraged.
VA Regional Offices provide financial and other forms of assistance to Veterans and their dependents. This includes disability compensation, survivor’s benefits, pension and fiduciary service, education and training, vocational rehabilitation and employment assistance, life insurance coverage, and home loan guaranties. VA disability compensation (pay) offers a monthly tax-free payment to Veterans who got sick or injured while serving in the military and to Veterans whose service made an existing condition worse.
During the upcoming Virtual Claims Clinic, staff members of the Waco VA Regional Office will answer questions about PACT Act benefits and VR&E services, existing VA benefits claims, and assist with filing new claims.
VR&E services help with job training, education, employment accommodations, resume development, and job seeking skills coaching. Other services may be provided to assist Veterans and servicemembers in starting their own businesses or independent living services for those who are severely disabled and unable to work in traditional employment.
