Description
**About the Department**
Our Mission: To fulfill President Lincoln’s promise to care for those who have served in our nation’s military and for their families, caregivers, and survivors.
**Our Missions**
In addition to our primary mission, VA carries out four specific missions to make good on our commitment to Veterans and other beneficiaries.
**Veterans Health Care**
VA’s [Veterans Health Administration](https://www.va.gov/health/) is the largest integrated health care network in the United States, with 1,255 health care facilities serving 9 million enrolled Veterans each year.
**Veterans Benefits**
Veterans can earn a range of benefits that help them transition back to civilian life in the country they fought to defend. Through the [Veterans Benefits Administration](https://benefits.va.gov/benefits/), VA helps service members transition out of military service, and assists with education, home loans, life insurance and much more.
**National Cemeteries**
The job of the [National Cemetery Administration](https://www.cem.va.gov/) is to make sure those who served this nation are never forgotten. NCA provides dignified burial services for Veterans and eligible family members by maintaining more than 150 cemeteries as national shrines and provides digital memorialization at the [Veterans Legacy Memorial](https://www.vlm.cem.va.gov/) to commemorate their legacy, service and sacrifice to our nation.
**The Fourth Mission**
VA’s “Fourth Mission” is to improve the Nation’s [preparedness](https://www.va.gov/vhaemergencymanagement/) for response to war, terrorism, national emergencies, and natural disasters by developing plans and taking actions to ensure continued service to Veterans, as well as to support national, state, and local emergency management, public health, safety and homeland security efforts.
