The Erie County Department of Veteran Services is committed to aiding and assisting all Erie County Veterans and their families in obtaining federal, state and county benefits.
The Erie County Department of Veteran Services guides veterans and their families in applying for the benefits they have earned during their service. The benefits that we file on behalf of our veterans and their families represent a small token of our appreciation for the sacrifices they have made for our nation by protecting and defending the many freedoms we all enjoy. Please note: The Erie County Department of Veteran Services is not affiliated with the Erie Veterans Affairs Medical Center, nor can we print and/or issue federal military identification cards or schedule medical appointments.
