0781/a: Publish static page updates

[aprocik1]

Description

The 0781 has been updated to include the 0781a. The new 0781 launches Friday, June 28.

We need to update the title and user story for the 0781. And we need to remove all mentions of the 0781a.

These are the pages we need to update:

- [About VA Form 21-0781](https://www.va.gov/find-forms/about-form-21-0781/) - Add an alert that encourages users to submit the 0781 PDF (since the 0781 online form won't be updated to match the PDF for a number of months) - Update this section: When to use this form - Remove this section: Related forms and instructions - [About VA Form 21-0781a](https://www.va.gov/find-forms/about-form-21-0781a/) - Confirm this page is deprecated when the new 0781 launches - Note: The product team is redirecting this link to the About VA Form 21-0781 page - [Disability compensation for PTSD](https://www.va.gov/disability/eligibility/ptsd/) - Update this section: What does VA consider to be a traumatic event? - Update this section: Additional forms you’ll need to submit - [File additional forms for your disability claim](https://www.va.gov/disability/how-to-file-claim/additional-forms/) - Update this section: For a posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) claim - Update this section: For a PTSD claim based on a personal assault - [Evidence needed for your disability claim](https://www.va.gov/disability/how-to-file-claim/evidence-needed/) - Update this accordion: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

Hi @aprocik1, I've left my content recommendations for the About VA Form 21-0781 page here. They're ready for your review. Once you've reviewed, I'll let the product team know in the intake ticket and ask them to review and show to relevant SMEs to review.

I'll turn to the 3 other static pages mentioned above in the ticket description.

Update: Katherine and I discussed this content in a meeting. She's going to share it with the product team to get SME approval.

Hi @aprocik1, I've updated the 3 other static pages.

Here are the in-line revisions:

Disability compensation for PTSD

Updated this section: What does VA consider to be a traumatic event? Updated this section: Additional forms you’ll need to submit

File additional forms for your disability claim

Updated this section: For a posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) claim Removed this section: For a PTSD claim based on a personal assault

Evidence needed for your disability claim Updated this accordion: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

[aprocik1]

Thanks, @katherine-fung! These two page look great:

• Evidence needed for your disability claim
• File additional forms for your disability claim

I think we need to clarify and standardize the format of the bullets on this page:

• Disability compensation for PTSD

Here's a quick suggestion--feel free to refine further:

What does VA consider to be a traumatic event?

- Combat experiences, like engaging in combat with enemy forces, experiencing fear of hostile military or terrorist activity, serving in an imminent danger area, or serving as a drone aircraft crew member - Personal interactions, like physical assault, battery, robbery, mugging, stalking, or harassment by a person who wasn’t part of an enemy force, or domestic abuse or harassment by a partner - Sexual assault or harassment - Other traumatic experiences, like getting into a car accident, witnessing a natural disaster, working on burn ward or graves registration, witnessing the death, injury, or threat to another person or to yourself that was caused by something other than a hostile military or terrorist activity, or experiencing or witnessing friendly fire that occurred on a gunnery range during a training mission

Hi @saratorres2,

The product team and VBA stakeholders are still reviewing the copy changes for the "About Form 21-0781" page, but when the page is ready for review, I'll let you know in this ticket and on Slack.

The preview link to review will be: http://preview-prod.vfs.va.gov/preview?nodeId=6022

Thank you!

@katherine-fung I've published changes to About VA Form 21-0781. Many thanks for the context you provided regarding the form!

@katherine-fung, can I close this ticket? I think the other pages in phase 2 have been updated--right?

[katherine-fung]

Yep I'll close this @aprocik1! Added to tracker.
