Veterans Assistance Commission Services – VAC

Veterans Assistance Commission Services - VAC

Meeting the needs of veterans is a legal and moral obligation. Under 330 ILCS 45, every Illinois county must maintain a Veterans Assistance Commission (VAC) to provide essential services for veterans and their families. Many counties, however, face challenges in staffing, funding, and managing a full-time VAC office. That’s where Absolute Support LLC comes in. We provide flat-fee contract VAC services that ensure compliance with state law while helping counties save money and deliver better support.


Why Illinois Counties Choose Contract VAC Services

Hiring full-time VAC employees comes with high costs—payroll, pensions, and retirement obligations. By contracting services instead, counties avoid these expenses while still meeting all requirements under Illinois law.

Benefits of contracting VAC services with Absolute Support LLC:

  • Transparent flat-fee pricing
  • No employee benefits or pension obligations
  • Scalable services tailored to county population size
  • Compliance with 330 ILCS 45
  • Professional, veteran-led service delivery

How Our Flat-Fee Model Saves Counties Money

Counties with populations from 10,000 to 40,000+ residents often find that staffing a VAC is cost-prohibitive. Our flat-fee contracts give leaders predictable budgets, remove HR risks, and still provide comprehensive services to veterans.

Instead of paying for salaries, pensions, and long-term obligations, counties can invest in direct veteran support.


Compliance With 330 ILCS 45

Illinois law requires counties to operate a Veterans Assistance Commission, but it doesn’t require counties to hire employees directly. By contracting with Absolute Support LLC, counties stay fully compliant while avoiding the long-term costs of employment.

We provide:

  • Statutory reporting
  • Veteran intake processes
  • Secure case documentation

Who manages the program?
Operations are handled by Absolute Support LLC under county oversight, meeting all state requirements.

What about data privacy?
All case data is stored securely in compliance with federal and state privacy standards.

Can we test before committing?
