June 2014 CVO Meeting @ National Veterans Art Museum
Jun 21 @ 10:00 am – 12:30 pm

The Coalition of Veterans Organizations (CVO) will meet on  Saturday, June 21, from 10 AM to 12:30 PM, on the North side of Chicago at the National Veterans Art Museum (NVAM) at 4041 N Milwaukee Ave in Chicago. We are very excited to be meeting there and to find such a fine venue as we move our meeting around to meet the needs of different veterans.

 

There is plenty of paid parking on the street and in the parking lot west off of Milwaukee Ave on Cuyler. There is free parking in the Sears lot across Cicero.

The agenda will start with a Power Point presentation on the CVO Veterans Program by the Chair, Dr. Bruce Parry. This is a great opportunity to learn more about what CVO does and to discuss our next steps.

 

We’ll be discussing the current crisis in the VA, the Crisis Hot Line campaign, the success of the recent Fundraiser and the success at the Memorial Day Parade.

There will be a tour of the museum at the end of the meeting.

 

As usual, coffee and donuts will be served! See you there!
