Independent reporting on disability, veterans, and accountability in California.
DAVCA is an independent, veteran-focused news and advocacy publication covering issues that affect disabled veterans across California. We report on access to care, disability benefits, public policy, and the systems responsible for serving veterans after military service.
Our work centers on clarity, accountability, and lived experience. We focus on what policies mean in practice—and where gaps remain.
DAVCA is not a campaign organization, a fundraising platform, or a lobbying group. We are a newsroom-style publication committed to credible reporting and public awareness.
What We Cover
Veterans’ disability and healthcare access
Reporting on delays, barriers, and outcomes within healthcare systems serving disabled veterans.
Benefits, claims, and appeals
Coverage and explainers on disability compensation, claims processing, and appeals affecting veterans in California.
Public policy and oversight
Reporting on state-level decisions, programs, and administrative actions that impact veterans’ services.
Community experience
Perspectives from veterans, families, and advocates focused on real-world impact—not rhetoric.
Our Editorial Approach
DAVCA follows a straightforward editorial philosophy:
- Veteran-centered and evidence-aware
- Focused on accountability and outcomes
- Respectful, measured, and human
- Accessible and free of unnecessary jargon
We aim to inform, not inflame—and to highlight issues that deserve public attention.
Who we are
DAVCA is published by veterans and supporters of veterans who believe disability-related issues deserve sustained, serious coverage. Our contributors include individuals with lived experience navigating veterans’ systems, as well as writers and advocates committed to public responsibility.
We welcome tips, story leads, and perspectives that help surface issues affecting disabled veterans in California.
Supporting Veterans
DAVCA does not solicit donations directly. We encourage readers who want to support disabled veterans to engage with established organizations providing direct services and advocacy.
Links on this site may direct readers to external organizations such as Disabled American Veterans (DAV), which operate independently from DAVCA.
