will host the virtual Town Hall to discuss how policies and programs have evolved and answer questions from Veterans.  “We are looking forward to updating Montana Veterans on our latest

policies and programs,” said Gill. “We are also excited to have a thoughtful conversation with Veterans to hear their feedback and address their questions and concerns. Their voices are

important to us.”  The town hall conversation will take place on Wednesday, Sept. 25th, from 5:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. The event is accessible virtually either by calling in or livestreaming

the town hall. To join, Veterans and their families should call in at 866-478-3358 or livestream the townhall at www.access.live/MontanaVATownHall or from Montana VA’s Facebook page. 

Program experts will share overviews of their services and resources for the first section of the town hall. The final thirty minutes are reserved for a Question and Answer period for

Veterans to ask questions.  Montana VA serves over 49,000 enrolled Veterans across Montana—an area roughly 147,000 square miles in size. Veterans are cared for by a staff of 1,400 at 18
