LaSalle County Veterans Assistance Commission coming to Peru

PERU – The LaSalle County Veterans Assistance Commission is extending its services to the Peru area. Outreach Coordinator Lissa Olson announced the news to Peru City Council that Progress Boulevard will be home to their new offices. Olson says the not-for-profit provides guidance to vets by helping them apply for benefits and file claims with the Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Defense, and other agencies.

The new location will also provide a computer and resume lab to help vets apply for jobs. There will be a ribbon-cutting and open house on August 30th.
