Reorganize the Virginia Veteran and Family Support program
Decision Package
Provides funding and positions to enable the Department of Veterans Services to change its method of administering the program that monitors and coordinates behavioral health and rehabilitative services for veterans, Guardsmen and Reservists not active in federal service, and their families.
