As you know, they only meet once a month and starting a new year! There is much to discuss regarding their programs and initiatives going forward. The members are responsible for reviewing the finances and the organization’s plans. They are in dire need of a Recording Secretary!

There are several Birthdays! Remember to send your sisters some love!
The next meeting of CVO will be at 7 PM on Wednesday, January 18th in the 2nd floor conference room of Jesse Brown VA Medical Center at 820 S Damen in Chicago. 2017 is here and it is a rebuilding year for CVO. We will discuss revamping CVO and bringing it back up to speed.
We will also have Cynthia McKee as our featured speaker, a Veteran Service Officer from the Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs to talk about Veterans’ Benefits and answer your questions.
“Representatives from Sunshine Homecare, including a doctor, will make a presentation on and do a screening for Hepatitis C. Hep C kills more people than HIV each year and the vast majority of people with Hep C do NOT KNOW they have it. Come out and volunteer to be screened. Results will be given to the individual at the meeting.”
Don’t forget that it’s a new year and it’s time for Individual and Organizational dues. Individual dues for a year are just $10. Organizational dues — which include one Individual membership — are only $50 for the year.
In case of inclement weather, call our voicemail at 773-243-2335 and we’ll let you know if the meeting has been changed.
UPDATE: Instead of coffee and donuts, we will have pizza and cheesecake for everyone’s pleasure!
Come out and support CVO!!
