The next virtual VA claims clinic for Arkansas Veterans will be held April 27 from 4 until 6.

To reserve a time slot, Veterans are asked to call (501)370-3829 by April 26.

The “Honoring our Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics” (PACT) Act of 2022 is a new law expanding VA health care and benefits for Veterans exposed to burn pits, Agent Orange and other toxic substances during their military service. The law helps VA provide generations of Veterans — and their survivors — with the care and benefits they’ve earned and deserve.

The main office of the Little Rock VA Regional Office is located at 2200 Fort Roots Drive in North Little Rock. It is open Monday — Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Veteran Assist Phone Line, 501-370-3829, is staffed Monday — Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

In addition, the Little Rock VA Regional Office operates a Satellite Office at the John L. McClellan VA Medical Center in Room 1C-151B. It is open Tuesdays, 8 a.m. — noon, and Thursdays, noon — 4 p.m.

Veterans and family members may also take advantage of VA’s new and easy-to-use online tool, Visitor Reporting Engagement Application (VERA), to schedule in-person or virtual appointments with VA benefits counselors.
