About US:

The Arizona Department of Veterans' Services (ADVS) provides direct services to Veterans through the administration of 19 Veterans Benefits Offices throughout the state - helping Veterans connect with their VA benefits, two skilled-nursing Veterans' Home facilities in Phoenix and Tucson provide short and long-term care, one Veterans' Memorial Cemetery in Sierra Vista with additional cemeteries under development in Northern Arizona at Camp Navajo and Southern Arizona in Marana - north of Tucson, along with Fiduciary to provide conservator and guardian services for incapacitated Veterans.

In addition, the Arizona Department of Veterans' Services provides critical, state-wide coordination and technical assistance to services and organizations serving Veterans. This includes activities such as coordinating services across private and public sectors in serving targeted populations such as Veterans experiencing homelessness, and special needs for the growing population of Women Veterans - many of whom are at-risk, as well as building community capacity to address Veteran employment and higher education.

Services provided by the Arizona Department of Veterans' Services were instrumental in connecting Arizona's nearly 600,000 Veterans with over $2.8 million in Compensation, Pension, Educational and Medical benefits, and grants from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs in FY 2014.
