Millions of veterans experienced toxic exposures during service and are now suffering health problems as a result. Following the passage of groundbreaking legislation last year, we teamed up with the Bob Woodruff Foundation to conduct a brief poll to help us better discover how well our community understands the benefits that are now available.

Our first poll revealed that many in our community still need information. We are now conducting a second poll to find out how the application process is going and to ensure that all veterans and military-connected families have easily accessible information on how to apply for and access these new toxic exposure benefits.

By taking this short poll, you will help us provide the very best support to our community. As we work to improve the lives of post-9/11 veterans, we want to get the most accurate information about the available benefits from the PACT Act for those suffering from toxic exposures.

Results from this poll will help IAVA get the most accurate information out to the community for those suffering from toxic exposures.

This poll is made possible in part by funding from the Bob Woodruff Foundation which is dedicated to ensuring that impacted veterans, servicemembers, their families, and their caregivers thrive long after they return home.
