"Benefits" are only features until our Veterans are utilizing them. We are "entitled" to our benefits when we have established eligibility and requested them. Contact your Service Officer for coordination of your entitled benefits. Below is a list of our local resources here in Shasta County, CA. Also listed are additional benefits that you may have access to as well.
