Veterans services reports busy month and plans Rural Military Family Coalition event Nov. 9
Summary
Veterans services staff said July brought new veterans to Adams County, reported completed accreditation (number pending), and announced a Rural Military Family Coalition event scheduled for Nov. 9 intended to increase outreach and awareness.
Veterans services staff told the Health and Human Services Board on Aug. 31 that July had been a particularly busy month, with veterans moving into the area and seeking assistance. The presenter said the office's motto is "we don't turn anyone away," described recent outreach efforts, and reported that accreditation has passed though the department expects to receive an accreditation number in about six weeks to enable access to VA records.
The presenter said the office is pursuing local partnerships — an audiologist from Myo Bluff has offered to work with veterans at a reduced rate to establish nexus for hearing exams — and that the department will host a Rural Military Family Coalition event on Nov. 9 with multiple speakers and outreach to veterans, law enforcement and first responders. The board discussed the veterans budget briefly and was told the reporting was for information rather than a formal approval.
