Enhancing Veterans' Care Tool Kit

In summer 2012, AACN joined with the Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA) in an effort to enhance the resources of nurses working with veterans as part of the Joining Forces initiative, with a particular focus on nursing education. To that end, this Enhancing Veterans’ Care (EVC) Tool Kit was developed.
