DAV CHAPTER 84 - VACAVILLE

Local DAV chapters offer trained Veterans Service Officers to act as a bridge between the veteran and the Veterans Administration, and local veterans service nonprofits.

Our local DAV chapter conducts a 4-phase veterans assistance program:

Phase 1:

Reach out to find and identify unserved, under-served, or transitioning veterans.

Phase 2:

Conduct a preliminary screening to determine immediate and longer-term needs

  • Complete an initial Chapter “Needs Assessment” form

  • Complete an initial Chapter “Needs Assessment” interview

  • Gather all appropriate paperwork

  • Prepare and file an initial VA claim with assistance of a Chapter Veterans Service Officer and regional DAV veterans service officers (Oakland or Sacramento)

Phase 3:

Match need to provider. Refer the veteran to governmental, and / or nonprofit organizations, schools for educational assistance, and potential employment resources as determined by the preliminary screening.

Phase 4:

Follow-up on success of accessing veterans assistance as necessary.
