Its primary mission is to support, honor, and care for Oklahoma veterans and their families by securing their earned benefits and providing high-quality, long-term skilled care.The department's origins date back to 1947, when the Oklahoma Legislature established the Soldiers Relief Commission to assist World War II veterans. In 1981, under Governor George Nigh, the legislature dissolved the Commission and officially established the modern ODVA to centralize and expand veterans' services in the state. The nine-member Oklahoma Veterans Commission governs the agency, and the Commission appoints ODVA's Executive Director, who manages the day-to-day operations of the agency and serves at the Commission's discretion.The Oklahoma Department of Veterans Affairs operates through four primary administrative and service-oriented divisions. Together, these components manage the state's veteran care facilities, advocate for earned benefits, and approve educational programs.The largest operational component of the ODVA is its network of seven long-term care facilities. These homes provide high-quality, compassionate, and skilled nursing care to eligible veterans who can no longer reside independently. ODVA's Veteran Services division is the primary advocacy wing of the agency for veterans and their dependents navigating complex state and federal benefit systems. Often historically referred to as the State Accrediting Agency, the State Approving Agency is a federally funded program operated by the ODVA under contract with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Finally, ODVA Central Administration, headquartered in Oklahoma City, provides executive oversight, strategic planning, policy development, and administrative infrastructure required to run the entire department." } ] } ] ```
