Sources and corrections
How We Approach Public Information
Useful information should make its source, purpose, and limits clear. These standards guide the public content and resource listings on CareForVets.
Start with the original source
Our approach is to use official program pages, government resources, and the organizations responsible for a service. A resource entry should explain what the organization offers, who it serves, how to access it, and any known geographic limits.
Links help you investigate an option. They do not establish that you qualify for a program, that a service has capacity, or that the organization is a CareForVets partner.
Make dates and roles meaningful
A checked date records when the listed source information was checked. It does not guarantee that every detail will remain unchanged. Confirm current eligibility, availability, and access instructions with the organization before relying on them.
CareForVets is responsible for the content it publishes. A named author or reviewer should reflect the work that person actually performed. We identify a clinical or specialist reviewer only when that review has taken place; credentials on the About page are not a blanket review of the website.
Keep explanations useful
- Separate educational information from services CareForVets actually offers.
- Use plain language and explain abbreviations when they first appear.
- Distinguish routine support, peer resources, and urgent help.
- Present costs, eligibility, and geographic coverage only when supported by a source.
- Describe any relationship with an outside organization accurately.
Report a correction
If a link is broken or a detail appears out of date, visit our contact page or email info@careforvets.com. Include the page address, the detail in question, and an official source if you have one.
Keep correction requests general. Medical records, identifying details about another person, and private case information are not needed to report a website issue.
