Dallas County (Arkansas) Veterans Service Office

What it is. An Arkansas county veterans service officer is employed by the county judge and paid from the Quorum Court's budget, trained and accredited through the Department of Veterans Affairs, and partly reimbursed by the State under section 20-81-106: one dollar for every two the county spends, up to $3,600 a year, or $4,800 in a county with more than 2,500 veterans, plus $500 a quarter each for VA accreditation and for access to VA's benefits system; see the Arkansas entry on the Department and county service officers. Help with a claim is free. Who and when. The Department of Veterans Affairs' county finder (last updated August 19, 2026) lists Terry Thacker at 67 Dallas County Rd 216, Sparkman, AR 71763, (870) 352-0365, [email protected], Monday to Thursday 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. The address is in the south of the county rather than at the Fordyce courthouse, and the phone has a Fordyce exchange; call to ask where to meet. The county has no website to compare. Dallas is in the Department's District 4, whose District Veterans Service Officer is Eric Siddons in the Fort Smith courthouse, (479) 966-5295. The County Judge, Chris Stanfield, is at the courthouse, 206 W. Third St., Fordyce, (870) 352-3371. The Quorum Court. No minutes or budget are posted online, so the office's appropriation is not published. The veterans court. None: the Thirteenth Circuit's plan for 2026 and 2027 lists no drug court or veterans court for Dallas County, and the Judiciary's veterans treatment court map does not shade Dallas.
