More than 50 veterans and caregivers gathered on Wednesday for a lively Town Hall at Montgomery Hall, engaging in an hour-long question and answer session with VA leaders.

Interim Medical Center Director Michael Renfrow and Jackson VA Regional Office Executive Director Darryl Brady led the discussion, supported by a panel of staff, including representatives from Primary Care and Community Care, who were on hand to address concerns.

The event didn't stop there. Following the Town Hall, attendees took proactive steps at the PACT Act Resource Fair. Veterans participated in the burn pit registry, scheduled toxic exposure screenings, and filed claims with VBA staff, making the most of the resources provided.

In a special moment during the Resource Fair, Chaplain Service honored Vietnam veterans with a heartfelt pinning ceremony, expressing deep appreciation for their service.

The event highlighted the VA's commitment to addressing veterans' concerns and providing essential resources, making a lasting impact on all who attended.
