Lafayette 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 veterans court. None: the Eighth South Circuit's plan for 2026 names an adult drug court in Miller County only, and the Judiciary's veterans treatment court map does not shade Lafayette.
