We welcome Mr. Scott Blackburn, to the role of Acting Deputy Secretary for the Department of Veterans Affairs, effective February 26, 2017. He is currently the Executive Director, MyVA Taskforce. Scott is a strong advocate for our Veterans and VA employees.

With his help, we will build upon the progress we have already made together. Scott is a trusted leader and I know he will do a fantastic job.
