Department of Veterans Affairs. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), established as an independent agency under the President by Executive Order 5398 of July 21, 1930, was elevated to Cabinet level on March 15, 1989 (Public Law 100-527).
The federal government's first medical treatment facility for veterans was established in 1811. After the Civil War, many states established homes for veterans. In 1921, Congress combined existing veterans programs for World War I veterans, creating the Veterans Bureau.
