From Sea to Shining Sea: State-level Benefits for Veterans

Center for New American Security released its state benefits finder on November 11. While services from nonprofit organizations and federal agencies are widely known, benefits offered by states to veterans are less so. State-level benefits, though extensive, vary widely and are often difficult to identify. With this State Veteran Benefit Finder, CNAS makes information about 1,814 identified benefits easily searchable. This tool allows users to filter state-level veteran benefits by type of benefit, beneficiary, and state to identify benefits for which they may be eligible, providing a unique and invaluable reference. The accompanying report offers analysis of trends in state-level benefits and includes recommendations for an array of key stakeholders, from veterans to those who serve them across domains.
