Virginia to Create Veterans Benefits and Services Poster

Virginia has enacted legislation (House Bill 160), which will have the Department of Labor create a voluntary Veterans benefits and services poster. House Bill 160 takes effect on July 1, 2024.

The details

Virginia employers will have the option to display a Department of Labor and Department of Veterans Services poster on benefits and services to veterans in the same locations where other required state and federal laws are posted.

The poster will include information on:

• Department of Veterans Services' programs, contact information, and website address.
• Substance abuse and mental health treatment services
• Educational, workforce, and training resources
• Tax benefits.
• Unemployment insurance benefits eligibility under state or federal law
• Legal services
