VA's National Cemetery Administration is asking TREA and VSOs to share information with their members on NCA services. NCA sent the following information to Funeral Directors. NCA is open for interments and is willing to accommodate those families who prefer to proceed with direct interment and postponing the formal committal services to another time. Dear Funeral Directors; Currently, all Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration cemeteries are open for burial and visitation by the public. To a schedule a burial, please call 800-535-1117, option 1. In light of concerns regarding COVID-19, we understand some families may prefer to proceed with direct interment of their loved ones and postpone the formal committal services to a later date. NCA will work to accommodate these preferences. As warranted, NCA will provide updates on the operating status of individual national cemeteries on our social media pages: https://www.facebook.com/NationalCemeteries and https://twitter.com/VANatCemeteries For more information about VA's response to COVID-19 please visit: https://www.coronavirus.gov
