Public Affairs & Media Relations

The ODVA Public Affairs/Media Relations Department handles public and media relations for the department on a daily basis. Our mission is to keep Oklahoma veterans informed of any news, events, messaging, public service announcements or statements that may affect them or their families.

The department prepares all public statements issuing from the Oklahoma Department of Veterans Affairs, crafts and distributes news releases, coordinates media interviews, speaking engagements and other public appearances of ODVA staff, and assists in the planning and execution of veteran-related events. The department also creates and distributes content across all ODVA’s social media platforms.
