Creates a VA-run Veteran Family Resource Program to connect veterans and their family units with services that improve health, resilience, and well-being. The law requires hiring family coordinators, setting program goals and metrics, allowing program expansion, and reporting program activity and participant data to Congress.
Requires the VA to survey disabled veterans and their families (first survey within one year, then at least every five years) to learn needs, especially supports for children and unmet needs. Also requires any program or activity funded under the Act to follow federal nondiscrimination laws (Title IX, Title VI, Section 504, ADA, Age Discrimination Act, and other applicable laws).
