Are you exploring your available educational or vocational trainings to achieve your career or personal goals? Or are you a service member newly transitioning to the civilian workforce and looking for some assistance where to begin?

WDVA can help! We have veteran benefits specialists that can assist veterans and eligible family members with accessing the right education benefits and programs. Those benefits include access to use for eligible vocational training programs and apprenticeships. We can help talk you through your options, help determine your eligibility, and give you the information you need to make the best choices for you and your family.

​The State of Wisconsin proudly leads the nation in providing education benefits to those who have served and their family members. We provide a number of educational programs for state veterans in addition to any federal Veterans' educational benefits that may be available.

Who comes to mind?

Think about the veterans you know.

Who continues to serve others long after their military service? Who has made an impact in their community? Who has a story that deserves to be recognized?

The 2026 Anna Mae Robertson Veteran Legacy Award is an opportunity to recognize an exceptional veteran, but we need you to help us find them.

Take a minute today and think of that veteran who deserves to have someone say, "I see what you've done, and it matters."

Today is Gold Star Mothers and Families Day. Please join WDVA as we give solemn remembrance for our nation's service members, and their families, who made the ultimate sacrifice while defending our nation.

On June 23, 1936, the 74th United States Congress designated the last Sunday of September as Gold Star Mother’s Day. The day has since been appropriately updated to honor their families as well.

This week’s focuses on one of Wisconsin’s important veteran benefits, our three state Veterans Homes. WDVA believes that caring for veterans and their families is an honor, and we work hard to provide an enjoyable place to live with top-notch 24-hour skilled nursing care. Comprised of hundreds of devoted employees and volunteers, the WDVA’s Veterans Homes at Chippewa Falls, King, and Union Grove have provided our nation’s heroes a place to call home for many years.

Currently, we’re on an upswing at the homes bouncing back from the tough days of Covid. We’ve had incredible feedback from family and residents, recent positive surveys from regulators, and a growing census at our Homes in King and Union Grove.

Want to know more? We encourage you to visit our homes, meet our skilled care staff, and take a tour of our excellent facilities. Also, you can ‘like’ and follow each of our homes on social media to stay up-to-date about the great people working there and the fun activities the homes regularly have planned for our members. Seeing is believing. Come check out our homes!

For more information on admissions eligibility, or how you can schedule a tour, please visit the WDVA Veterans Homes website: https://dva.wi.gov/services/wisconsin-veterans-homes/
