The Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs was recently recognized for our 'Catch a Co-Worker' program as a recipient of the annual 2026 SCAA Influence Award. It recognizes that supporting employees is inseparable from delivering quality service to veterans and their families. By listening to employee feedback, the Department created a visible, inclusive way to celebrate employee contributions. It recognizes WDVA's initiative advances employee support, service quality, and organizational effectiveness throughout Wisconsin - including our administrative offices, our skilled nursing veterans homes, and our state veterans memorial cemeteries.

The award was accepted by WDVA Secretary James Bond and was presented by Governor Tony Evers and Wisconsin Department of Administration Secretary Kathy Blumenfeld.
