What do we do?
The Fillmore County Veterans' Services Office provides support to veterans, widows of veterans, children of a deceased or disabled veterans, and parents who lost a son or daughter in military service. We help individuals apply for various federal and state veterans' benefits. We work with the Federal and Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs, and other veteran organizations to inform veterans of the various benefits for which they are eligible. Where appropriate, we provide referrals to other agencies.
We work under supervision of the Fillmore County Board of Commissioners in accordance with the regulations and policies of the Minnesota and federal government. We do NOT work for the Veterans Administration or the State of Minnesota and have no direct influence on the granting of benefits.
