We live in the greatest country in the world because of our veterans. We can never thank them enough for all that they have done for us, but we can work to ensure that veterans and their families have the support they need as they transition into civilian life and in the years to follow.
Recently, I attended Senator Bennett’s Veterans Breakfast in Pontiac and spoke at Prairie Central High School where discussions were had on the challenges veterans are facing. Too many veterans are struggling with mental health issues, homelessness and health care issues.
If you are a veteran in Illinois, we want to hear from you! Please complete our veterans survey so that we know what is and isn’t working so that we can better represent you in the General Assembly. We WANT to improve Veterans services in Illinois.
