It’s important to honor our Veterans, not just on special occasions a couple times a year, but each day of the year. At VHA, we do our part to help our patients that served our country through a wide variety of health care services, as well as personal and professional guidance programs.
We are honored to work with each of our patients and understand the sacrifices they made. It’s that sacrifice that compels us to fulfill President Lincoln’s promise to our Nation’s heroes: “To care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan.”
We invite you to take a moment to learn about some of the amazing ways VHA employees work to honor our Nations Veterans, ways you can too, on the VA Careers Blog.

We will have to find another place to volunteer.
