The Women Veterans Post Is Published — and Currently Vacant

The state division publishes a women veterans page with a service officer post attached to it. The page states that the position is currently vacant and directs women veterans to a county service officer instead, who need not be in their own county.

What this benefit is

The state division publishes a women veterans page with a service officer post attached to it. The page states that the position is currently vacant and directs women veterans to a county service officer instead, who need not be in their own county.

What it's worth: A named post with nobody in it — use a county service officer

  • The division’s women veterans page names a Colorado Women’s Veterans Service Officer and states that the position is currently vacant.
  • The page gives a general division address and telephone number, and says that a county veteran service officer will give a quicker response.
  • It states in terms that the county service officer does not need to be located in the veteran’s county of residence.
  • What the page still offers without a post-holder: a quarterly women veterans newsletter sign-up, and a pointer to the women veterans licence plate through the motor vehicle department.
  • No women-specific health, housing or childcare provision appears on the page.

Who is entitled to it

  • You served, which is the gate here.
  • Your home is in this state.

Not sure whether that describes you?

Answer a few questions about this benefit specifically — we only ask what this one actually depends on, and we stop as soon as we know.

How to claim it

  1. 1Do not wait on the state post. Go straight to a county veteran service officer, and pick one who answers rather than the nearest one — the division’s own page says the county need not match.
  2. 2Sign up for the quarterly women veterans newsletter while you are on the page; it is what the office still sends without a post-holder.
  3. 3Ask the motor vehicle department about the women veterans licence plate separately. The women veterans page points at it but does not administer it.
  4. 4If you need women-specific health care, that route is the federal system, not this office. Nothing of the kind appears on the state page.

No renewal
Once granted it does not need renewing.
CorrectionDirectories that list a Colorado Women and Minority Veteran Coordinator as a live contact are repeating a page header. The page under that header says the position is vacant, and a woman veteran who rings expecting a specialist gets a general line.
Worth knowingA vacancy is not an abolition. The post exists in the division’s structure and may be filled again, so the value here is knowing to route around it today rather than concluding the state has no such role.
