Advertisement Helping Vets Get Benefits On CRL’s Veterans Briefing, Emil Baker and William May spotlighted a warm, personal VA outreach service that meets veterans at home, at work or in the hospital to help them understand their health care benefits and enroll. The segment also showed how spouses, children and other loved ones can make those visits even more valuable by asking questions, clearing up misconceptions and helping veterans feel comfortable with the process.
