Veterans Assistance
Willard Jackson became
KIC’s Tribal Veteran
Representative in 2008
through the Department
of Veterans Affairs.
One of the most important functions as Veterans Committee Chair has been to try to get Veterans enrolled. If you are a Veteran and have not been enrolled please contact me at 617-3376. Some of the opportunities that are available to Veterans and their families are:
1. Domicilary (rehabilitation)
2. Housing for Homeless Vets
3. Registration Ass istance
4. Compensation Pension
5. Burial Assistance
6. Help to spouses with death benefits
7. GI Bill scholarship program application assistance
If you know of anyone that needs assistance with forms, enrollment or getting registered please don’t hesitate to contact me. Guna’l Cheesh
