LANSING – The Michigan Veterans Affairs Agency (MVAA) has issued their Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 annual report. The report covers the period from Oct. 1, 2024 through Sept. 30, 2025 and details the agency’s partnership collaborations and efforts on behalf of the state’s more than 486,000 veterans and their families.

Through collaboration with valued partners, the agency helped secure more than $100 million in recoveries for Michigan veterans and their families, earned certification in suicide prevention and awareness training and honored more than 6,000 Vietnam War-era veterans through their award-winning Vietnam War Veteran Recognition Certificate program.

“At MVAA, we recognize that every partnership strengthens the network of care and opportunity that surrounds our veteran community. Whether through strategic alliances, community collaborations or innovative joint initiatives, our progress is rooted in relationships built on respect and a shared purpose,” said MVAA director Brian L. Love. “Partnerships with county veteran service offices, suicide prevention and mental health organizations, veteran service organizations and countless others have expanded our reach, enhanced our capabilities and deepened our understanding of the evolving needs of Michigan’s veterans.”
