Burial in the State Veterans Cemetery is reserved for eligible veterans and their spouses. Grave markers are also provided.

Other than Honorable Discharge Benefits Extension

Effective October 1, 2018, Public Act 18-47 extends certain state and municipal benefits that are currently available to veterans honorably discharged or released under honorable conditions from active service in the armed forces, to veterans who received an Other than Honorable (OTH) discharge characterization.

To be eligible for such benefits, a veteran with an Other than Honorable (OTH) discharge must be diagnosed with one or more of three “Qualifying Conditions” which are:

    - Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) resulting from military service
    - Traumatic brain injury (TBI) resulting from military service
    - Military sexual trauma (MST) as described in 38 U.S.C. § 1720D.

The diagnosis/determination must be made by an individual licensed “to provide health care services at a United States Department of Veterans Affairs facility” which includes the following licensed persons: Physicians, Advanced Practice Registered Nurses, Psychologists and Licensed Clinical Social Workers, who will complete the CT DVA OTH Form 1.

The veteran applying for State or municipal benefits must submit, along with the completed CT DVA OTH Form 1, all other required documentation (e.g. Discharge Form DD-214, relevant agency application, etc...) to the agency or municipality administering the benefit for which the veteran is applying. The administering agency or municipality will then determine the veteran’s eligibility for the benefit.

A Veteran with a “Bad Conduct” or “Dishonorable” discharge is NOT eligible for Veteran’s benefits under this new law.

Residential Programs

The Connecticut Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) has a long history of "Serving Those Who Served"; since 1864, the Agency has supported Connecticut Veterans and continues this tradition with Residential and Healthcare programming on our campus in Rocky Hill.

Right at Home

The city of Stamford and the Veteran Resource Center works hand in hand with our trusted partner, Marc Brooks, owner of Right at Home in Darien. Right at Home provides free homecare services to our veterans and serves areas in Darien, Stamford, Greenwich, New Canaan, Norwalk, and Cos Cob. Trained CNAs and home health aides are exclusively hired to assist seniors with activities of daily living. Mr. Brooks has collaborated with family doctors and works with Stamford hospital, Villa of Stamford, Cassena Care of Stamford, Civita Care Center at Long Ridge, and Greenwich hospital. Mr. Brooks is a veteran of the US Navy Submarine Force and soon carried on earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Marc quickly progressed at Montefiore Medical Center, acquiring critical skills, and caring for patients as an ER and ICU nurse for over 13 years.

Patriots' Landing

Patriots' Landing aims to provide a safe and secure environment for Connecticut Veterans, their spouse and children who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, as they prepare to return to independent living.

Residential Services

Offering temporary, supportive living with programming designed to return Connecticut veterans to independent living in the community.
