4TH OF JULY YYAAYYYY

Tribal Veteran Representative (TVR) Training to be held on May 9-11, 2017. This training is in collaboration with the Oregon State Department of Veterans Affairs and hosted by the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde in Grand Ronde, OR.  It is a 3-day training with a ton of great information that will be provided to any tribal employee or tribal volunteer that works to help Veterans and their families get connected to benefits and services from VA.  This training could be very helpful for those Tribal Health Programs who have a Reimbursement Agreement with VA, so that they have a better understanding of the benefits and services available to Veterans, as well as, how to connect them to resources to help them and/or their families.  A lot of dedicated resources have been provided for this training and right now we only have a handful of folks who have signed up.

Any help you can give to promote the event by sending out to your list group encouraging participation would be very helpful.

Please contact me with any questions.

Kindest Regards,  Terry
