Connecticut Department of Veterans Affairs
Launches New Website and Mobile Application
The Connecticut Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) has
unveiled a new, redesigned website, www.ct.gov/veterans, along with
a veteran-focused mobile app, CTVeterans Mobile Application.
The newly redesigned website covers a broad range of services
and support for veterans. On the agency homepage, users will find
navigation directed to several of the most commonly accessed
veteran services such as benefits, residential & recovery
programs, donations & volunteering, and programs &
services. Paired with the navigation is a new topic search
feature that gives website visitors a more refined
veteran-specific, topic-based search. Users are also able to select
their personalized preference for viewing site information through
list or simple view options.
Along with the new layout and features, the redesigned website
utilizes a mobile-first, responsive design, which provides a
user-friendly experience across phone, tablet, and desktop devices.
The new website also continues to make services more accessible for
online visitors to conduct business with the DVA through increased
usability, customer service, transparency, and accessibility.
“We’re very excited to be revealing these two new digital
advances that will connect Connecticut veterans with the services
and benefits they have earned. We couldn’t have done this without
the help of our sister agency, the Department of Administrative
Services’ Bureau of Enterprise Systems and Technology, the folks at
Connecticut Interactive, LLC, and our great team at the DVA!” said
Acting Commissioner Thomas J. Saadi.
The Connecticut Department of Veterans Affairs newly launched
‘CTVeterans’ mobile app allows Connecticut veterans and residents
to access crisis assistance by phone, text, and online chat. CT DVA
services are available through the app menu, including an
interactive map of veterans clinics and hospitals in Connecticut.
The application will allow users quick access to:
- Crisis assistance by phone, text
message, and online chat
- Veterans benefits and services
- Healthcare and hospitals
- Housing
- Businesses and jobs
- Supporting a veteran information
- Flag status
- Connecting with DVA on social
media
“The CTVeterans mobile app is a very important mobile
application offering for the state of Connecticut veterans and
their families,” said Paul VandenBussche, General Manager of
Connecticut Interactive, which developed the app. “We’re
continually making efforts to provide our veterans with access to
the services and support they need accessible from anywhere.”
The CTVeterans mobile app is free to download from the iTunes
Apple Store and Google Play on Apple and Android devices,
respectively. The application can also be downloaded through the
DVA website at CTVeterans Mobile Application.
