The Department of Veterans Affairs can trace its roots back to 1636 when the Plymouth Colony promised to take care of injured soldiers who fought in the war with the Pequot Indians. The next major development took place in 1776 when the Continental Congress provided pensions for disabled soldiers. In 1811, veterans’ homes and medical facilities were created by the Federal Government.
The 19th Century saw benefits and pensions for the widows and dependents of veterans. After the civil war, veterans were treated for any medical condition whether it was related to military service or not. The formal Veterans Affairs department known today was created in 1930. Currently, the Department of Veterans Affairs has 800 outpatient clinics, 152 hospitals, 35 group homes and 126 nursing home facilities. The Department is headquartered in Washington, D.C.
