Local help and county facts
Pinal County, AZ Veterans Service Office (VSO): phone and address
DAV Chapter 36 publishes claims assistance in Coolidge and an appointment-only satellite in Eloy. HOHP in Casa Grande provides veteran resources and Eagle One outreach. ADVS phone and video appointments serve veterans throughout Pinal County.
In Pinal County, you can get free claims help from an accredited VSO representative at DAV Chapter 36’s Coolidge service office or Eloy service office; confirm availability before traveling. Call before going to Coolidge because the chapter and department websites disagree about whether its Main Street address is north or south, and Eloy appointments are booked separately through the chapter. HOHP Eagles Landing Veteran Center in Casa Grande is a referral contact, not a claims office. You can also speak with an Arizona state benefits counselor by phone or video through ADVS, at no cost. The Casa Grande VA Clinic is 20 miles away in a straight line from the county center. The largest service-era group is Vietnam era only, about 13,000, give or take 978; Agent Orange exposure questions depend on where and when you served.
