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!
Please join Congresswoman Robin Kelly for her Veteran Workshop featuring two panel discussions. The first panel discussion focusing on Veteran access to housing will feature experts providing advice for veteran homeowners. The second panel will focus on finding carriers after service and transitioning your skills from service into the private and public sector. Representatives from federal and local agencies, as well as, Veteran Service Organizations will be present to provide assistance with benefit claims and answer questions.
