One of DAV’s primary missions is to provide free, professional assistance to veterans and their families in obtaining VA and other government benefits earned through service.
Each year DAV helps more than 300,000 veterans and their families obtain needed benefits through 100 National Service Offices throughout the United States and Puerto Rico. The Wisconsin National Service Office, located in Milwaukee, helps roughly 3,500 veterans and their families annually. DAV National Service Officers are attorneys-in-fact.
