Senator Jen Metzger to Hold Veterans Resource Fairs in Middletown and Monticello on December 18

Middletown, NY...Senator Jen Metzger (SD-42) has scheduled the next two Veterans Resource Fairs as part of a series organized by her office, following a successful first resource fair in the Town of Warwick last month. Both Veterans Resource Fairs will take place on Wednesday, December 18: The first will be held in the morning from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm at the Sullivan County Government Center in Monticello (100 North Street); and the second will take place in the afternoon at HONOR Shelter in Middletown (38 Seward Avenue) from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm. 

“These resource fairs make it easier for veterans and active duty service members and their families to access programs and services tailored to their needs by providing a one-stop shop," said Senator Metzger.

Participating organizations include Action Toward Independence, Legal Services of the Hudson Valley, Middletown Vet Center, Joseph P. Dwyer Peer to Peer Support Project, and VA Hudson Valley Health Care.

The December 18 resource fairs are open to active duty service members, veterans of any branch of the U.S. Military, and their families. Attendees can expect to receive legal, financial, and health related support from participating service organizations. Attendees will also have an opportunity to view the New York Warrior Promise Wall, a traveling memorial, honoring the servicemen and women who have fallen to suicide.

Attendees are asked to RSVP with the Senator’s office at (845) 344-3311 or metzger@nysenate.gov.
