Additionally, the Department of Veterans Affairs administers many of the veterans' benefits programs that exist. This overview will highlight several major benefits, focusing on Education, Health care, Disability and Compensation Benefits, Death and Indemnity Benefits, and Employment benefits. (The focus will be on Federal and Illinois Veterans' benefits).
