AP: Wait For Disability Appeal Process Over For Vets

The Associated Press spoke with IAVA for this article about the  Physical Disability Board of Review's decision to start accepting applications from wounded veterans after months of delay.   "Even at this late date, it is still good news to hear that the board is finally taking applications," Vanessa Williamson, the policy director at New York-based Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, said Friday. "But unless they are doing active outreach to troops and veterans, those with wrongly decided claims will not even know that recourse is available." [link]
