Veterans Services — Kotzebue Referral to Alaska Office of Veterans Affairs
The State of Alaska's Office of Veterans Affairs (OVA) does not staff a dedicated Veterans Service Officer (VSO) in Kotzebue as of this check — the department's own VSO location list covers Anchorage, Wasilla, Juneau, Fairbanks, Soldotna, Kodiak, and Craig/Ketchikan, with no Northwest Arctic office. NW Arctic veterans should call OVA's main line for help filing VA claims, education/medical benefits, or connecting with a Tribal Veteran Representative who may serve the region.
Who it’s for
Alaska Native/American Indian and other veterans in the NW Arctic region
