Some 200 veterans were honored Sunday by a local lawmaker in Nyack. Rockland and Westchester state senator David Carlucci’s 8th annual Veterans Appreciation event at the Nyack Seaport offered a free brunch to area veterans who served in World War II up through the Iraq War, but they also discussed veterans’ issues…
Carlucci encouraged veterans to join his monthly Veterans Advisory Committee so they can further discuss legislation and services that affect them. He urged them to attend an upcoming New York State Senate hearing on veterans’ mental health. It’s being held at Clarkstown Town Hall on Wednesday at 10am. For more information about the committee and the mental health hearing, contact Carlucci’s office at 845-623-3627.
