Our Commitment to Accuracy
At Missouri Veterans History Project (MVHP), we are deeply committed to providing our readers with truthful, accurate, and trustworthy content. As a platform that now delivers critical updates on government-run support programs in both the United States and the United Kingdom, we understand the importance of fact-based information, especially for retirees, caregivers, Veterans, disabled individuals, and low-income households.
We believe that accurate information empowers people to access the benefits and support they need with confidence and clarity.
Information Sources
Our editorial team uses only credible, publicly accessible, and verifiable sources to produce content. These sources include:
- Official government websites (e.g., GOV.UK, SSA.gov, IRS.gov, HMRC, DWP)
- Press releases and official statements from public institutions
- Government policy documents and published legislation
- Parliamentary updates, official guidance documents, and regulatory announcements
- Verified news outlets with reputations for factual reporting
We avoid the use of unverifiable blogs, anonymous sources, or speculative commentary in our reporting.
Fact-Checking Process
All articles published on MVHP go through a structured fact-checking process:
- Initial Research – Writers gather information from reliable and official sources.
- Verification – Each data point, quote, figure, and claim is cross-checked against multiple authoritative sources.
- Editorial Review – Our editors review every article for factual accuracy, consistency, and clarity before approval.
- Approval – Content is published only when it meets our internal standards for truthfulness and reliability.
We aim to translate complex policy language into easy-to-understand articles while preserving all essential facts and details.
Continuous Monitoring and Updates
Government programs such as Social Security, SNAP, DWP, PIP, and WASPI are often subject to changes in legislation, eligibility criteria, and payment schedules. MVHP maintains a continuous content monitoring process to ensure our information remains current.
When new information is released, our team reviews and updates previously published articles as needed. Major updates are clearly noted within the content.
Correction Policy
If a factual error is discovered—either internally or reported by a reader—we are committed to correcting it promptly and transparently. We value feedback and encourage readers to alert us to any inaccuracies via our Contact page.
Corrections will be made without altering the core context or misleading the audience.
Editorial Independence
Our fact-checking process is independent of any external influence. MVHP does not accept compensation or partnership offers that could compromise our editorial integrity or factual standards. All editorial and fact-checking decisions are made solely by our in-house team.
Policy Review
This Fact-Checking Policy is subject to periodic updates. As our platform expands and best practices evolve, we may revise this policy to better serve our readers. We recommend visiting this page regularly to understand how MVHP ensures the accuracy and integrity of its content.
