Veteran Courts gaining national attention

September 25, 2009

On Wednesday, September 16, 2009 local Buffalo attorney (and a good friend of ours), Jennifer P. Stergion, Esq. participated in a Round table on Veterans Treatment Courts in Washington D.C.

Ms. Stergion serves as Chairperson on the Committee on Veterans and Service Members Legal Issues here in Buffalo N.Y. She was contacted by Chairman, Mr. Bob Filner of House Veterans’ Affairs to take part in the round table discussion.

The goal of the round table was to, “open up the broader thought process of how to help veterans fully integrate into society after service in the military.”

Thank you, Ms. Stergion for your commitment to all the men and women of the U.S. military, both past and present. Your efforts and hard work are appreciated and certainly not taken for granted or overlooked.
