Care we provide at VA Tomah health care

Our Minority Veterans Program serves all Veterans, including Black Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans, including American Indians, Alaskan Natives, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Island Americans. We focus on: 

  • Management of the medical center in their efforts to address the needs of minority Veterans
  • The needs of minority Veterans in the local community
  • Identifying barriers and creating a more accessible environment for minority Veterans
  • Informing Veterans of VA benefits, services, and programs

Our role

VA Tomah health care promotes awareness of minority Veteran issues, increases participation in VA benefits, and ensures equitable services without barriers. The program is designed to act as a mediator and facilitator. We do not process claims, handle equal employment complaints, or employee-related issues.
