For over 140 years, the Department of Veterans Affairs has been caring for its Veterans and their dependents. As a Department, we believe in 'serving those who have served.' This is accomplished through our:
Office of Advocacy and Assistance, Residential Facility, Healthcare Center, and Cemetery and Burial Services.
The DVA has supported Connecticut Veterans and continues this tradition with Residential and Healthcare programming on our campus in Rocky Hill. There are two paths for residency at the DVA:
Residential Facility: offers temporary, supportive living with programming designed to return Connecticut Veterans to independent living in the community;
Sgt. John L. Levitow Healthcare Center: a state-of-the-art medical facility that offers long-term care for Veterans with chronic, disabling conditions who require 24-hour assistance.
