Beginning Monday, October 14, 2024, the department will officially operate from its new location at 201 N Roxboro Street, Durham, NC 27701, previously home to the Durham County Board of Elections.

To facilitate the relocation, Veteran Services will cease operations at its current office in the Human Services Building located at 414 E Main Street, Durham, NC 27701, at 5 p.m. on Monday, October 7, 2024.

"Our relocation to this site is centered on providing better accessibility and convenience for our veterans, their families, and our community," said Durham County Veteran Services Director Lois Harvin-Ravin. "The new location offers front-door parking, which will significantly grant easier access for those with mobility challenges. This move reflects our ongoing commitment to improving services and ensuring that all who visit can do so with comfort and convenience. We believe this centrally located facility will make a positive impact on the overall experience for our veterans and their families."
