Mission Statement

The mission of the North Dakota Department of Veterans Affairs is to assist all veterans of North Dakota and their dependents in obtaining all benefits to which they are entitled, both federal and state either by direct contact or through the assistance of the County and Tribal Veterans Service Officers. Additionally, and due to the aging of the World War II and Korean Conflict veteran population, the Department has made it possible to transport veterans to the VA Hospital in Fargo and to three community based outpatient clinics, Grafton, Minot and Bismarck. We also assist in basic needs such as dental, hearing, etc. with the use of the Post War Trust Fund earnings.
