Overton Brooks VA Medical Center (OBVAMC) will host a Town Hall and outreach event on from 5-6 p.m. Thursday, at the University of Louisiana-Monroe, Pharmacy College, 1800 Bienville Drive, Room 110, across the street from the Community Based Outpatient Clinic.

Veterans and their families, congressional and senatorial stakeholders, Veteran Service Organizations, local media partners, and other organizations in our community are invited to attend.

The Town Hall meeting is an open forum in which hospital leaders will listen to stakeholder’s thoughts, concerns and ideas. The meeting is an opportunity to build and strengthen OBVAMC’s commitment to ensuring service members, Veterans, families, and other beneficiaries have an opportunity to share their experiences both positive and those experiences that can be improved by OBVAMC staff.

VA Outreach services and special program representatives will also be available to assist Veterans to include VA health care enrollment and eligibility; VA benefits and claims assistance; patient advocate services and more.

If you wish to provide coverage of this event, contact the OBVAMC Public Affairs Office at (318) 990-5571 or 5249. You can also reach the office via email at vhashrpublicaffairs@va.gov.
