U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs (Official)

On YouTube · The official YouTube channel of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs itself — the institution, speaking for the record; not a law firm or advocate.

VA’s own channel: about 2,700 videos and 458,000 subscribers, posting several times a week. Included here deliberately as the primary source — this is what the Department says about its own caregiver program, its own forms, and its own performance, in its Secretary’s own words. A VA-accountability reader should be able to check the site’s claims against the Department’s, side by side.

Why we carry them. For the record: when DearDougCollins says ‘VA told families X,’ these are the videos where VA actually said it.
