ALVA Launches New Bilingual Veterans Benefits Guides

Customized English- and Spanish-language resources provide practical, step-by-step guidance to help veterans and families navigate the benefits they’ve earned

Herndon, VA — The American Latino Veterans Association (ALVA) today announced the launch of its new Veterans Benefits Guides, a customized collection of free, bilingual resources designed to help veterans and their families better understand and navigate the benefits and services available to them.

Rather than simply directing veterans to existing benefits information, ALVA developed the guides to organize essential information into practical, easy-to-follow roadmaps. Each guide walks veterans through the process in a logical sequence—from understanding potential eligibility and what a benefit provides to preparing necessary information, taking the appropriate action, and knowing what to expect next.

“Veterans earned these benefits through their service, but understanding what is available and figuring out where to begin can sometimes be a challenge,” said Danny Vargas, Chairman and CEO of ALVA. “We created these customized guides to make that process easier. Our goal is simple: help veterans understand what benefits they should be exploring and give them a clear path for taking the next step.”

Available in both English and Spanish, the initial ALVA Veterans Benefits Guides cover:

  • Getting Started With Your VA Benefits
  • VA Disability Compensation
  • VA Health Care
  • Education & Training Benefits
  • VA Home Loan Benefits
  • Family & Survivor Benefits
  • Burial & Memorial Benefits
  • VA Decision Reviews

The Getting Started guide serves as an overview for veterans who may not know which benefits they should be exploring, while the individual guides provide step-by-step roadmaps for navigating specific benefits.

The guides also connect veterans directly to official government resources, applications and forms, as well as state veterans agencies that can provide additional assistance with federal and state benefits.

The Veterans Benefits Guides are part of ALVA’s broader commitment to helping veterans thrive and supporting their well-being after military service. ALVA plans to continue expanding the collection with additional practical resources addressing the needs of veterans and their families.
