On Wednesday, May 14, more than 700 Veterans and transitioning service members took advantage of the comprehensive services offered at the VA Benefits Expo. This event was a true one-stop


shop, providing participants with personalized assistance from VA Benefits claims service representatives, toxic exposure screenings, and a variety of healthcare resources from the VA


Augusta Health Care System. Additionally, employment opportunities and other valuable resources were available thanks to contributions from community agencies and partners. The mobile Vet


Center was present to offer on-site counseling and outreach. Veterans found support for their job and career needs, along with information on National Cemetery and legacy benefits for their


families. The VA Augusta Women's Clinic, Suicide Prevention team, Health Care for Homeless Veterans team, and many more were also on site, engaging with Veterans and handing out


goodies. It was truly an event not to be missed. If you were unable to attend the VA Benefits Expo, don't worry! You're in luck. The Isakson VA Atlanta Regional Office will host an
