Veteran Service Officers - VSOs

The Montana Veteran Services Program is a vital, no-cost to the veteran resource dedicated to supporting the more than 80,000 veterans across the state - as well as their spouses and dependents.

These trained advocates work tirelessly to ensure every veteran receives the full range of benefits they've earned through their service. Beyond federal assistance, VSOs also connect veterans with local resources, offering a comprehensive support network tailored to individual needs.
