Saginaw , MI — The Saginaw VA Healthcare System is hosting a Veteran Town Hall and PACT Act Resource Fair on Wednesday, November 13, 2024 at VFW Post 2496, 2900 Connon St. Alpena, MI 49707, from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.

Join us for a PACT Act presentation, hear from and speak to VA leaders, find out if you are eligible for VA health care, learn about Toxic Exposure claims and other benefit information. We will have on-site Toxic Exposure Screening, VET Center resources and light refreshments provided. 

“One of the best parts of my job is to get into the community and meet our Veterans where they live,” stated Anthony Colón, Medical Center Director. “Yesterday, we had just that opportunity and filled a room with local Veterans at the American Legion Post 94 in Cadillac. Veterans and their caregivers participated in the town hall and took advantage of the many resources we have available.”

The Aleda E. Lutz VAMC in Saginaw, Michigan operates an 81-bed skilled nursing and rehabilitation Community Living Center. It provides care to over 41,808 Veterans in a 35-county geographic area, from mid-Michigan to the Mackinac Bridge. Veterans can also receive care at one of our nine VA Community Based Outpatient Clinics located throughout Michigan. More information about this VA can be found at www.va.gov/saginaw-health-care/.
