Talk story with the Veterans



STATE OF HAWAI’I HOUSE COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC
SAFETY & MILITARY AFFAIRS
“Talk story with the Veterans”

Cordially Invites You to Discuss Veterans Issues

The heroism and valor displayed by all armed forces veterans while serving in combat deserves the utmost respect. Because of the state’s long and illustrious military history, Hawaii is home to many veterans who face a variety of issues that require state involvement and assistance, such as employment, affordable housing, human services, and healthcare.
The committee of PSM is holding statewide meetings to ask veterans for their input.

1. Could the needs of the veterans be better met if the Hawaii State of Veterans Services and its responsibility for issues relating to veterans was transferred to another state agency?
2. How is the Hawaii State Office of Veterans Services handling the affairs of its Hawaii veterans?
3. Any suggestions on other relevant issues or concerns of veterans who live in the state.
