What is the KDVA?

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Governor Paul Patton established the Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs (KDVA) in 1998. He charged the Department with helping veterans and their families obtain all federal, state, and local veterans benefits to which they are entitled. Kentucky began building a Department capable of significantly assisting Kentucky’s large veteran population.
