The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has commenced the search for permanent leaders to fill key health and benefits positions currently occupied by acting officials. This significant move aims to stabilize leadership within the department, which plays a crucial role in serving the needs of veterans across the nation.
The process will be overseen by separate commissions, each chaired by VA Deputy Secretary Paul Lawrence. These commissions will work diligently to identify qualified candidates who can effectively manage and enhance the delivery of services to veterans. The search is expected to span several months, reflecting the importance of finding the right individuals for these leadership roles.
