The Carroll County Veterans Services Program employs
accredited Veteran Service O昀케cers who provide
guidance and assistance to Carroll County Veterans,
their dependents and survivors, with applying for
Federal and State bene昀椀ts. This assistance includes
help with applying for Veteran’s bene昀椀ts via the system
administered by the State of Maryland and the United

a system that can be overwhelming. The program
also provides case management services to Veterans
seeking assistance with connecting to other community
programs and services.
