Delaware resident veterans

Delaware is home to approximately 989,948 veterans who have earned access to a wide range of federal, state, and local benefit programs. Navigating these programs can be complex — 25 BRAVO exists to remove that friction and surface every resource a veteran or their family is entitled to, at no cost.

The Delaware Veterans Portal on 25 BRAVO surfaces 167 validated resources organized across the B.R.A.V.O. framework — the five-pillar intelligence architecture that ensures no benefit goes unfound.

The B.R.A.V.O. Framework

B — Benefits: Federal and state compensation, disability ratings, pension programs, and VA health care enrollment.
R — Resources: Community organizations, nonprofits, legal aid, housing assistance, and food security programs.
A — Advocacy: VSOs, claims support, appeals guidance, and legislative representation for veteran interests.
V — Voice: Peer connection, storytelling platforms, mental health access, and community belonging.
O — Opportunity: Employment, education, entrepreneurship, and career transition pathways for veterans.

Benefits range from federal programs administered through the VA to unique Delaware state programs that many veterans do not know they have earned. 25 BRAVO indexes both — so nothing is missed and no veteran leaves value on the table.

Delaware Commission of Veterans Affairs is the primary state contact for veteran services in Delaware. Reach them directly at 302-739-2792.
