Can you promote in r/vha_human_resources?

This is a group for VHA staff to share ideas and conversation.

The short answer

Engage by providing genuinely helpful, non-promotional answers focused on VHA HR issues, use the pinned megathread when relevant, disclose any affiliation briefly if mentioning your product, and avoid links or pitches unless explicitly allowed by moderators.

What works here

  • Answering VHA HR questions with de-identified, on-topic information
  • Posting in the pinned megathread when the topic matches
  • Citing relevant policies and sources

What gets posts removed

  • Unsolicited product pitches, recruiting, or lead-generation
  • Sharing PHI/PPI or identifying case details
  • Asking users about their VISN or probing for contact details
  • Posting off-topic HR-adjacent marketing

Where this comes from

View the current official rules on Reddit

On-topic requirement

Rule limits posts to VHA Human Resource related topics, so vendor posts must clearly tie to VHA HR value and not be generic marketing.

Pinned megathread

There is a pinned megathread for specific topics—use it for reproposed questions or centralized discussion, which may be the only allowed place for certain content.

Privacy / sensitive data

Strict prohibition on PHI/PPI and identifying information increases risk for vendor engagement that requests or handles case-level data.

Anonymity guidance

Rules restrict asking about VISN and posting detailed personal/location info, so avoid solicitation for user-specific leads or location-based targeting.
