 If you are caring for a Post 9/11 veteran, or know someone who is, there are recent developments from the Department of Veterans Affairs that you should be aware of.  President Obama has signed an act which provides a wide range of new services to support caregivers of these vets.  In addition, the VA will also begin providing enhanced benefits to veterans of all eras that are enrolled in VA care. This includes:
 - Access to the VA's Caregiver Support Line: 855-260-3274
 - Expanded education & training on providing care.
 - Support services such as counseling & support groups.
 - Enhanced caregiver website.
 To find out if you may qualify for additional services as a Caregiver, or to get more information, visit the DVA's website at http://www.caregiver.va.gov/ .
