In The Moment Talk Show 2025 | Expanding Access & Opportunity for Veterans

Host: Sabrina St. John Dr. Lessie Branch joined In The Moment Talk Show with host Sabrina St. John for a powerful and informative conversation about the full spectrum of services available through the New York State Department of Veterans’ Services. The discussion centered on one core mission: ensuring Veterans and their families understand what they have earned — and how to access it. Dr. Branch outlined how NYS DVS supports Veterans across state, federal, and even private-sector benefit systems. From healthcare and mental health services to housing stability, employment assistance, education benefits, and financial support, the Department works to ensure no Veteran is left navigating these systems alone. The conversation also highlighted: VA compensation claims for service-connected disabilities Pension applications The GI Bill and education access Expanded New York State education benefits under Governor Kathy Hochul — broadening eligibility beyond combat Veterans Targeted support for homeless Veterans Importantly, Dr. Branch emphasized that all services provided through NYS DVS are free of charge. The purpose of engaging platforms like talk shows, radio, and social media is simple: to reach Veterans where they are and ensure they receive the support they deserve. This appearance reinforced a critical truth — access to benefits should not depend on awareness alone. It requires outreach, education, and intentional connection. If you are a Veteran or know someone who is, support is available.
