Constituent Resource Coordinator

A dedicated DVMF constituent services coordinator can help veterans and military families find the support they need by responding to questions and concerns about benefits. The coordinator works closely with federal, state, and local agencies to ensure constituents receive timely resolutions and access to resources.

To submit a question or comment to our constituent services team, please complete the DVMF Constituent Inquiry Form. (For privacy reasons, please do not transmit personal identifying information via email, including date of birth and social security number.)

For Agency Veteran Liaisons
