For over 100 years, RSL Victoria has been improving the lives of veterans and their families by providing advocacy, wellbeing and welfare support.
In October 2021, RSL Victoria provided a range of services and support to veterans who are either currently serving in the Australian Defence Force or have previously served.
October was a particularly busy month for our compensation support program. Our compensation advocates collectively processed 55 compensation claims to the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) and obtained $705,799.84 in compensation payments from the DVA for our clients.
Compensation advocacy is a fundamental veteran support service that the RSL provides. To learn more about our compensation support service or to speak an RSL Victoria Advocate, contact Veteran Central.

First established in 1916, RSL Victoria’s primary objectives are to provide support to veterans and their families, acknowledge Australian Defence Force service and perpetuate its patriotic duty whilst encouraging conversation and mateship between those who have served and their communities. A crucial role of the RSL is also to appropriately commemorate those who have suffered and died in service of our nation or its allies.
