A Veterans organization that provides support to Disabled Veterans and their families.

Primary focus in Brookings is to provide free transportation for veterans that have medical appointments with the Veterans Administration (VA) Hospital. The program is not part of the VA but this group does support them by running the DAV Transportation Network with them.

This organization is always looking for volunteers that have the time to drive for the DAV Transportation Network. Questions about driving the van or catching a ride to a medical appointment can be directed to the Brookings County Veterans Office.
