The page covers "disability compensation, pension claims, death pension, burial benefits, life insurance, education, vocation rehabilitation, health care and numerous other benefits". Rides to the VA. "The GCVSO also provides transportation services for veterans to and from medical appointments at the Tallahassee VA Outpatient clinic, Monday through Friday."

The proposed 2026-27 budget gives Veteran's Services $224,438, down $41,916 from $266,354, with smaller salary lines and the promotional and printing lines that paid for veterans events and Veterans Day t-shirts cut to nothing; at the June workshop the director said the office could not cut positions and would send one person to each conference instead of two.
